Holy Martyr Sisinius died by the sword together with Saint Atticus. It is supposed that they were arrested together with Saint Adrian at Nicomedia, whose memory is kept on the same day. The calendar of the Church of Greece (new style) commemorates them on 26 August, among the martyrs Adrian, Atticus and Sisinius. The sources consulted preserve no further details.
