Only St. Justa (sometimes "Justus" in early manuscripts) is mentioned in the Martyrologium Hieronymianum (93), but in the historical martyrologies.

They made fine earthenware pottery for a living, with which they supported themselves and helped many of the city's poor.

They were then forced to walk barefoot to the Sierra Morena; when this did not break their resolve, they were imprisoned without water or food.

However the lions in the amphitheatre refused to attack Rufina, remaining as docile as house cats.

[7] La Seo Cathedral (Zaragoza) contains a chapel dedicated to Justa and Rufina.

Agost, in Valencia province, is the location of a hermitage dedicated to these saints (Ermita de Santa Justa y Rufina), built in 1821.

There is a shrine to the saints in Alicante where a three-day fiesta is held in their honor in July.

[1] During the Middle Ages their feast was celebrated in the Iberian Peninsula on 17 July, as attested by calendars of the time, such as for example by that in the Antiphonary of León.

They are often depicted as young women with their heads uncovered (indicating their status as unmarried), with clay pots, palms (representing martyrdom), and a lion licking Rufina's bare foot.
