We have not examined this text nor compared it to stories of the martyrdom in other languages. It is believed to be based on a Martyrdom originally written in Syriac (see Detoraki 2014, 74).
Note that translations of hagiographical literature into other ancient languages are not as a rule recorded in the Cult of Saints database, unless there is evidence to suggest that the translation dates from the 7th century or earlier.
