According to tradition, he was martyred by crucifixion at Ancyra (present-day Ankara), in Asia Minor, during the reign of Julian the Apostate.[1] He was a native of Paphlagonia.[2] He is said to be the last Christian martyr who was killed by crucifixion.[1] Hearing that the Emperor Julian was at Ancyra, Gemellus had traveled there to criticize the emperor for his apostasy,[2] and was tortured and killed at Ancyra[1] (or, according to one source, at Edessa[2]). A church dedicated to Saint Gemellus was located at Sykeon, a village on the Siberis River in Asia Minor.[3] References1. ^1 2 Michael Walsh, A New Dictionary of Saints: East and West (Liturgical Press, 2007), 222. {{DEFAULTSORT:Gemellus Of Ancyra}}{{saint-stub}}2. ^1 2 Sir William Smith, A dictionary of christian biography, literature, sects and doctrines: being a continuation of "The dictionary of the Bible", Volume 1 (Little, Brown & Co., 1880), 623. 3. ^Sir William Mitchell Ramsay, The historical geography of Asia Minor (John Murray, 1890), 244. 3 : 4th-century Christian martyrs|362 deaths|Year of birth unknown |
