Their legend states that they were imperial tax collectors in Soissons who were pious Christians. They were ordered to be arrested by Rictius Varus, the praefectus-praetorii in Gaul. The two saints hid themselves (tradition holds in a cave in a forest near Soissons) but were eventually caught, and then tortured and beheaded on the high road leading to Soissons.[1] Rufinus is one of the 140 Colonnade saints which adorn St. Peter's Square. Darenth BowlThe Darenth bowl (dedicated to Saint Rufinus of Soissons c.450) was found in an ancient Saxon burial ground (5th century) on the site of the former Darenth Park Hospital, now demolished. The glass bowl was found with 12 Saxon graves as well as a spearhead and brooches. These are now in Dartford Borough Museum.[2] References1. ^Saints of June 14 {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Valerius And Rufinus}}{{France-saint-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.dartfordarchive.org.uk/early_history/magnified/darenth_bowl.html |title =Darenth bowl |website =www.dartfordarchive.org.uk |accessdate=30 November 2013}} 4 : 287 deaths|3rd-century Christian martyrs|Gallo-Roman saints|Year of birth unknown |
