Evagrius of Tomis
A martyr of Tomis on the Black Sea coast, honoured together with Benignus.
Life
Holy Martyr Evagrius of Tomis, a city of Scythia (today Constanța, in Dobruja), is commemorated with Benignus in the Roman Martyrology on 3 April (new style). The text of the martyrology calls this day their “birthday”, that is, the day of their martyr's death.
No other details of their lives have been preserved in the sources consulted. They are counted among the martyrs of the first centuries in Dobruja and saints of the undivided Church. He should not be confused with Evagrius, the martyr of Tomis commemorated on 1 October with Priscus and Crescens.
