Anonymous 5201 - A nun

http://syriaca.org/person/5201
Joh. Eph., EH 2.39, relates the story of two anonymous sisters, both of whom were nuns. Both of them, and especially the elder one, defied all the attempts to bring her into Chalcedonian communion during the persecution of the 570s. She constantly derided the persecutors who finally gave up and left her and her whole monastery in peace.1
