Theodotus

Holy Martyr Theodotus came from Marcianopolis in Thrace and suffered together with Maximus and Asclepiodote. Because they confessed their faith in Christ, they were first scourged, then their hands and feet were cut off, they were imprisoned and finally beheaded. They are commemorated on 17 September, in the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style), among the martyrs Theodote, Maximus, Pantoleon, Patermuthius and Charalampus.
