Solina

Holy Martyr Solina was born in Gascony and lived around the year 290. To escape marriage to a pagan, she fled to Chartres, where she received the crown of martyrdom by beheading. She is a saint of the undivided Church, known from the Western calendars.

She is commemorated on 17 October, the liturgical date in the Orthodox calendar (the same day number on the old and new calendars).
