Life

Holy Martyr Quadratus (Codratus) was a bishop in Anatolia and died a martyr in the persecution of Diocletian, around the year 304, together with forty-⁠two companions, among them Emmanuel, Sabinus and Theodosius.

The sources say little about him. His commemoration is kept on 26 March, according to the Roman Martyrology, in the Western calendar. He is a saint of the undivided Church, honoured without synodal canonization.
