Hagiography edit

From Fabius' life it is known that he was commissioned to carry the banner of the governor when the latter organized a meeting. Fabius refused because the ceremony had pagan character. He was imprisoned, submitted to torture and tried to, but did not change his plans. Then Fabius was decapitated. For this reason he is nicknamed "the standard-bearer," because he did not want to carry a flag with pagan images.

The cult edit

It is said that in order to prevent the burial his head and his body were thrown into the sea at different points but the sea called them together, and his remains are still preserved in Cartenna. His feast day is celebrated on July 31.[2]
