Saint Valerius (also called Valerian) received the crown of martyric glory in the fourth century, in the time of the emperor Licinius. He was a brotherly friend of Saints Gordian, Seleucus and Macrobius (13 September), but was absent when they were put to death. On returning he went to their tomb, and there God granted him to die. He is commemorated on 13 September, in the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style).
