Marius Aventicensis
Marius Aventicensis or, popularly, Marius of Avenches (532 – 31 December 596) was the Bishop of Aventicum (modern Avenches) from 574, remembered for his terse chronicle. After his death in Lausanne, he was venerated in that city as a saint, and his feast day was celebrated on 9 or 12 February.
What is known of him, aside from his chronicle, is from the inscription on his tomb in the church of Saint Thyrsus in Lausanne〔the inscription is published in ''Monumenta Germ. Scriptores'', XXIV, 795.〕 He came of a distinguished, rich family, probably Gallo-Roman in their culture. In 574 he was made Bishop of ''Aventicum'', took part in the Second Council of Mâcon in 585, and shortly afterwards transferred his episcopal see from Aventicum, which was rapidly declining, to Lausanne.
His metrical tomb inscription of unknown date, published in ''Gallia Christiana'', extols him as an ideal bishop; as a skilled goldsmith who made the sacred liturgical vessels with his own hands; as a protector and benefactor of the poor who ploughed his own land; as a man of prayer, and as a scholar. In 587 he consecrated a proprietary church built at his expense on property of his own at Paterniacum (Payerne). The church of Saint Thyrsus was rededicated at an early date to Saint Marius.
His brief chronicle is a continuation of the ''Chronicon Imperiale'' usually said to be the chronicle of Prosper of Aquitaine. It covers the years from 455 to 581, and is a valuable source for Burgundian and Franconian history, especially for the second half of the sixth century, "and serves to correct the bias of Gregory of Tours against the Arians of Burgundy"〔Henry Wace, ''
