In hagiography:
the Forty Martyrs of Sebaste were a group of Roman
soldiers martyred under Licinius who were commemorated
collectively not only in the Greek church but widely across late antique
Christianity. Their Syriac cult is not only attested by a rich textual
tradition but also by numerous churches and monasteries including
Church of the Forty Martyrs in Mardin, Church of the Forty
Martyrs in Karamlish, Dayro d-Modiq, and Dayr Ibn Jājī.
