Life

Holy Martyr Iphigenia is commemorated on 16 November (new style, the Greek calendar) as a virgin and martyr, but very little is known of her. Her commemoration appears only briefly in the Small Euchologion or Hagiasmatarion, the 1956 edition of the Apostolike Diakonia, with no further information; nowhere else is she mentioned.

The place, time and manner of her martyrdom are not known.

Commemorated the same day November 16
