Holy Martyrs
Two Martyrs of Ascalon
Two martyrs who suffered at Ascalon in Palestine.
Life
The Two Martyrs of Ascalon (present-day Ashkelon, in Palestine) contested for the faith, though their names have not been kept. They were buried in the ground up to their waists and so gave up their souls into the hands of God.
They are commemorated on 6 April. No other details about them are preserved.
