Martyrology
A martyrology is a catalogue or list of martyrs and other saints and beati arranged in the calendar order of their anniversaries or feasts. Local martyrologies record exclusively the custom of a particular Church. Local lists were enriched by names borrowed from neighbouring churches.〔(Delehaye, Hippolyte. "Martyrology." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 9. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1910. 11 Dec. 2014 )〕 Consolidation occurred, by the combination of several local martyrologies, with or without borrowings from literary sources.
This is the now accepted meaning in the Latin Church. In the Orthodox Church, the nearest equivalent to the martyrology is the Synaxarion and the longer Menologion.〔The Greek synaxaries are a counterpart. The literature of the synaxaries comprises also the books of that category belonging to the various Oriental rites (see ''Analecta Bollandiana'', XIV, 396 sqq.; Hippolyte Delehaye, ''Synaxarium ecclesiæ Constantinopolitanæ Propylæum ad Acta Sanctorum novembris'', 1902).〕 As regards form, one should distinguish between simple martyrologies that simply enumerate names, and historical martyrologies, which also include stories or biographical details; for the latter, the term ''passionary'' is also used.
==Oldest examples==
The martyrology, or ''ferial'', of the Roman Church in the middle of the fourth century still exists. It comprises two distinct lists, the ''Depositio martyrum'' and the ''Depositio episcoporum'', lists most frequently found united.〔
Among the Roman martyrs, mention is already made in the ''Ferial'' of some African martyrs (March 7, Perpetua and Felicitas; September 14, Cyprian). The calendar of Carthage, which belongs to the sixth century, contains a larger portion of foreign martyrs and even of confessors not belonging to that Church.〔
