Life
Holy Martyr Pergentinus suffered at Arezzo in Tuscany in Italy in the year 251, in the persecution of the Emperor Decius (249-251), together with his brother Laurentius (Laurentinus). The martyrology of Usuard says that they were still boys when, after enduring harsh torments and working great wonders, they were put to the sword.
The two brothers are commemorated on 3 June, by the Western calendar (new style). No other details of their lives are preserved in the sources at hand. Pergentinus is honored as a saint of the undivided Church.
