Saint Gorgonius : ウィキペディア英語版
Gorgonius

Saint Gorgonius of Nicomedia was a Christian martyr, part of the group Gorgonius, Peter Cubicularius and Dorotheus, who died in 304 AD at Nicomedia during the persecution of Emperor Diocletian.
According to Lactantius and Eusebius, Gorgonius held a high position in the household of the emperor. When the persecution began he was consequently among the first to be charged, and with his companions, Peter, Dorotheus and several others, was subjected to the most frightful torments and finally strangled.
According to one version of the legend, Diocletian, wishing to expose Christians in his household, ordered everyone to pay honor to the Roman gods; if they refused, they would be exposed as Christians. The first to be exposed was Diocletian's butler, Peter, surnamed ''Cubicularius'' ("valet, chamberlain"), who was strung up, his flesh torn from his bones. Two Christians, Dorotheus, an imperial chamberlain, and Gorgonius, an army officer, protested this treatment, and were also martyred, together with another official, named Migdonius. In the meantime, Peter was boiled or burned alive,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Santi Pietro (detto Cubicolario), Doroteo e Gorgonio )〕 or “roasted on a gridiron.”〔Saint Alfonso Maria de' Liguori, ''Victories of the martyrs; or, The lives of the most celebrated martyrs of the Church''. Volume 9 of Ascetical works (EditorEugene GrimmPublisherBenziger Bros., 1888), 261.〕
Diocletian, determined that their bodies should not receive the honors which the early Christians gave the relics of the martyrs, ordered them to be thrown into the sea. The Christians nevertheless obtained possession of them and later the body of Gorgonius was carried to Rome.
==Veneration==

From there in the 8th century the remains were translated by Saint Chrodegang, Bishop of Metz to the monastery of Gorze in Lorraine. Some of the relics were translated to Minden.〔Sabine Baring-Gould, ''The lives of the saints'' (J. Hodges., 1875), 131.〕
Many French churches obtained portions of the saint's body from Gorze, but in the chaos of the French Revolution, most of these relics were lost. The feast of Gorgonius and his companions is kept on March 12 by the Roman Catholic Church,〔"Martyrologium Romanum" (Libreria Editrice Vaticana, 2001 ISBN 88-209-7210-7)〕 and on September 3 by the Eastern Orthodox Church.
