Life
Plutarch was a martyr at Alexandria, about 202, in the persecution of Septimius Severus, and according to Eusebius the first of Origen's pupils to receive the crown of martyrdom. His brother was Heraclas, later head of Origen's school and bishop. Origen encouraged him in prison and went with him to the place of execution. He is commemorated on 28 June in the Catholic calendar and, by one source, on 7 June in the Orthodox.
Commemorated the same day June 28
