Saints Trophimus (Trophimos), Sabbatius (Sabbatios, Sabbaticus), and Dorymedon are venerated as Christian martyrs.
[2] The story of their martyrdom is enshrouded in myth,[2] and though they share the same feast day, the saints were not martyred together or at the same time.
Officials in Synnada attempted to force Dorymedon and Trophimus to sacrifice to the gods Castor and Pollux.
Dorymedon and Trophimus refused and were tortured and sentenced to be thrown to wild beasts in the arena.
A reliquary in the form of a sarcophagus containing some of the bones of Trophimus was discovered at Schifout Kassaba (Synnada) in 1907, and transported to the museum at Bursa; this monument may date back to the third century.
