Zoilos the Roman

Holy Martyr Zoilos of Rome.

Zoilos is commemorated in the Greek synaxaria as a martyr of Rome who gave his life for Christ. Little has been preserved of his story beyond his name and his witness.

He is one of the many martyrs of the early Church whose memory survives in the calendar alone.
