Life
Holy Martyr Eudoxius of Sebaste was a soldier and suffered in the time of the Emperor Licinius (according to other sources, in the time of Decius), together with Atticus, Agapius, Cateria, Istucarius, Pactovius and Nictopolion.
The soldiers Eudoxius, Atticus and Cateria endured various tortures, by order of the duke Marcellus and the archon Auxanus, for preaching Christianity. Then they were shut in prison, where they were scourged with ox sinews and had their teeth knocked out. At that time the Christians Istucarius, Pactovius and Nictopolion were seized, who were beaten with rods and subjected to other tortures, then burned together with the soldiers mentioned above.
The Synaxarion commemorates them all on 16 November (new style).
