Those killed included:
Gaatha, her daughter Doulkilla, and Wellas, brought their relics to Cyzicus between 383 and 392 . Wellas was martyred after returning north of the Danube. Wereka and Batwin are named in both Gothic and Greek sources, but the persecutor (Wingourichos), the other martyrs, and the others, are only named in Greek sources, which may err slightly in their transliteration of Gothic names. They are recognized as Saint s, with a Feast Day of March 26 in the Arian calendar, and October 23 in a Gothic calendar. SEE ALSO Germanic Christianity REFERENCES
