==Hagiography==
According to tradition, Victoricus and Fuscian were missionaries from the city of Rome who were preaching the Christian religion in the city of Therouanne and in the areas inhabited by the people known as the Morini. They were followers of Saint Quentin, as well as of Crispin and Crispinian.
Near Amiens, they met Gentian, who warned them that Christians were being killed for their faith. Later, the governor Rictius Varus (Rictiovarus) questioned Gentian about the whereabouts of Victoricus and Fuscian. Gentian refused to tell him and was consequently beheaded. According to the ''Golden Legend'', the governor later brought Victoricus and Fuscian to Amiens. "Then he did do take broches of iron and put them through their ears and through their nostrils, and after did do smite off their heads. And by the will and power of our Lord, they arose up, and took their heads in their hands, and bare them two miles far from the place where they had been beheaded."〔''The Golden Legend or Lives of the Saints as Englished by William Caxton (Vol. One). '' Reprinted. (Bryn Mawr: Bryn Mawr College, 1973), 130.〕 It is said that all three were buried at the place called Saint-Fuscien.
