Saint Cyriacus, a Deacon of The Roman Church under Popes Marcellinus and Marcellus, was put to death in 303 A.D. during the Persecution of Diocletian.

He had twenty-two Christian companions, who were killed with him, among whom were Largus and Smaragdus.

The following Text is from Wikipedia - the free encyclopædia.

Saint Cyriacus, together with Saints Largus and Smaragdus and others (of whom Crescentianus, Memmia and Juliana are mentioned in The Roman Martyrology), is Venerated on 

8 August. All that is known with certainty, apart from their names and the fact of their Martyrdom, is that they were buried at The Seventh Milestone of the Via Ostiensis on that date.

Saint Cyriacus is one of "The Fourteen Auxiliary Saints".
