According to the source, he is one of those venerable men who, together with Hilarion the New, John, Kalantios of Tamasia and the two Cassians (of Glypha and of Axylou), belong to the company of the three hundred Alaman martyrs and venerable fathers who suffered in Cyprus. He is commemorated on 6 October (new style) and, together with all the Alamans, on 17 September.
