-The holy, glorious and right-victorious [[Martyr]] '''Isidore of Chios''' brought Christianity to the Greek island of Chios. He was born in Alexandria, Egypt and was martyred in the persecutions of Decius, c. 251 AD; his body was taken to Venice in 1125 and hidden in the palace of the Doge; it was re-discovered in the early 14-th cenutry. His skull was discovered in Chios, encased in a silver and jewell reliquary, and translated to Venice in 1627. The [[Orthodox Church]] celebrates his [[feast day]] on [[May 14]].

 His body was cast into a cistern.  A young Christian woman, [[Myrope of Chios|Myrope]] (see [[December 2]]), with the help of a friend, retrieved the body although it was guarded by soldiers.  On learning that the soldiers would be put to death if they failed to find the body, Myrope went to Numerius and confessed that she had taken Isidore's body, but refused to say where it was then interred.  Numerius had her publicly flogged, then thrown into prison.
-Before she died, she had a vision of Holy Isidore, who "encouraged her with the news that although she was about to die for what she had done it would not have been in vain because she would be giving her life for [[Jesus Christ]] and not for Isidore or their Christian friends."

 Her body was interred beside Isidore's, and a [[chapel]] erected over the graves.  Saint Marcian built another in the fifth century.  In 1525, the [[relics]] of Isidore and Myrope were moved by the Latins to the Church of Saint Mark in Venice.
