Description

Here, in fragmentary form, is one of the surviving Georgian Synxarium of the medieval period. The author appears to date to the late 10th century, but appears to draw upon early Greek sources. It was discovered as an incomplete text in one of the libraries of St. Athos. Only 11 of its 63 entries are complete, as the document itself appears to be missing large sections of its original content. Its contents focus primarily on martyrdom of Sts. Peter, Paul, and Stephen.
