[1][2] According to his Vita, Amasius was a Greek who was forced into exile, fleeing the persecution of the Arian Emperor Constantius.
[4] In Sora he healed a boy with gout and performed other miracles, but was later expelled by the Arian faction.
[5] In 346 Julius appointed him bishop of Teano in the Province of Caserta in succession to Saint Paris, and consecrated him bishop in the Basilica of Santi Apostoli, Rome.
"In Teano in Campania, commemoration of Saint Amasius, bishop, around 356."
(Roman martyrology)[7] His cult is still alive in several dioceses in central Italy.
