Commemorated on July 10
The
Holy Martyr Apollonius came from the city of Sardis, located in Lydia
(Asia Minor). He declared himself a Christian and was arrested. When
they demanded that he swear an oath on the name of the emperor, he
refused, saying that it was improper to swear on the name of a mortal
man. They tortured Apollonius for a long time and then crucified him.
This occurred at Iconium either under the emperor Decius (249-251) or
the emperor Valerian (253-259).
