Life
Saturninus of Alexandria was a martyr, a saint of the undivided Church.
The Syriac Martyrology of 411 commemorates him on 2 May, by the Julian calendar (old style), "according to the Greeks", that is, by the usage of the Greek-speaking churches, at Alexandria. The Latin Hieronymian Martyrology says that he fell asleep in prison, which suggests that he died of his chains and imprisonment. No other account of him survives.
