ABSTRACT
Life of the Holy triplets: Speusippus, Eleusippus and Meleusippus Tergemini from Cappadocia (+ 175). The brothers were martyred together with their grandmother Leonilla under the reign of Marcus Aurelius. Their relics were transferred some centuries later, in 490, to the Cathedral of Langres.
