Life
Holy Martyr Phivea, called also Viveya, was the sister of the holy martyr Tathuil, called Phiphail in the Azbyka source, and suffered with him between the years 98 and 138, for the bold and fruitful preaching of Christianity among the pagans.
After long and ingenious torments, the pagans hung her brother from a tree and sawed him with a saw, and Phivea they killed with a spear thrust in the neck. The saints are commemorated on 18 September.
