Bishop of Melitene in the third century. The Greeks venerate him on different
days, but especially on 31 March. He lived in the time of the persecution of
Decius, and although it is certain that he was cited before the tribunal of
Marcian to give an account of his faith, it is not sure that he died for it. He
was indeed condemned to death, but the Emperor released him from prison after he
had undergone considerable suffering. He was famous both for the splendour of
his doctrinal teaching and the miracles he wrought.

There was a younger Acacius, who was also Bishop of Melitene, and who was
conspicuous in the Council of Ephesus, but it is not certain that he is ranked
among the saints.
