(d. 415 AD)
Pagan martyr. Daughter of the mathematician Theon of Alexandria. She was educated in mathematics, astronomy, and philosophy and taught Neoplatonist philosophy in Alexandria. As a pagan, she was opposed by Christians in the city and was killed by a mob incited by fanatical monks. It is not clear if the murder had the approval of the patriarch Cyril.
