Life

Protogenes of Carrhae was bishop of Carrhae in Mesopotamia, remembered on 6 May.

The Roman Martyrology says only that at Carrhae in Mesopotamia there was Saint Protogenes, bishop. We have no data on his life, his time or his episcopate.

He is a saint of the undivided Church, named in the Roman Martyrology; no Orthodox synodal canonization is known. The information is very scant.
