Discussion

The Martyrologium Hieronymianum under 6 March lists a number of saints with the same names (Victorinus, Victor and Claudianus) as some of the characters in this Martyrdom, associating them in particular with Nicomedia, not Attaleia. It seems that there was some confusion in the record of these saints, or of similarly named saints, which the present state of our knowledge does not allow us to unravel.
