Appolinaris, Bishop and Martyr
According to tradition, SAINT APOLLINARIS was a native of Antioch. Chosen the first Bishop of Ravenna, he faced nearly constant persecution. He and his flock were exiled from Ravenna during the persecutions of the Emperor Vespasian (or Nero, depending on the source). Identified and arrested as the leader of the ancient community of Christians, he was tortured and then martyred by being run through with a sword.
