Life
Holy Martyr Indes is commemorated on 3 December (new style, the Greek calendar) together with Agapius, Seleucus, Mamas, Domna, Glycerius and with forty martyrs of Sophianai. The synaxarion says that they received martyrdom by the sword.
A verse says that the three men, Agapius, Seleucus and Mamas, loved the sword with longing, out of love for their Maker. The commemoration of some of them is repeated on 28 December. The exact place and time are not preserved.
