Simon, Abraham and Mana

Simon, Abraham and Mana were martyrs of Beth Titta, near Karka in the district of Beth Slokh (Kirkuk) in Mesopotamia, put to death in 447.

Their eyes were pierced with red-⁠hot nails, and afterwards they were shot with arrows, on 27 August 447. They are regarded as saints, and their commemoration falls on 25 August. These torments and these names resemble strikingly those of Mana, Abraham and Simon of Beth Parsaye, killed in 339; it is possible that the sources speak of the same group, dated in two ways.
