フィエーゾレの聖ロムルスイタリア語サン・ロモロ、西暦90年頃没は、1世紀のフィエーゾレの司教でした。彼はイタリアフィエーゾレ守護聖人として崇敬されています。ロムルスはおそらく1世紀の地元の助祭、司祭、または司教であったと考えられます。[ 1 ] [ 3 ]

伝承によれば、彼は聖ペテロの弟子であり、使徒によってキリスト教に改宗した。 [ 2 ] [ 3 ]この伝承によれば、ロムルスはフィエーゾレの 初代司教となり、ドミティアヌス帝の治世中に4人の仲間、カリッシムス、ドゥルキッシムス、マルキス(イ)アヌス、クレセンティウスと共に殉教した。[ 2 ]

He was not named as a bishop or martyr in documents dating from 966; however, a document from 1028 names him as such.[1] From then on, Romulus was considered a martyred bishop of Fiesole, and his companions were named as Carissimus, Dulcissimus, Marchis(i)anus (Marchiziano), and Crescentius.[1] Their feast day was listed as 6 July in the 1468 Florentine edition of the Martyrology of Usuard, and in the 16th century, his name began to appear in the Roman Martyrology, where he was named as a disciple of Saint Peter.[1]

As Antonio Borrelli remarks, sometime between the end of the 10th century and the beginning of the eleventh, Romulus was "upgraded" from being considered a Confessor of the Faith to a martyr, possibly by a local abbot named Teuzo.[1]

An 11th-century legend associated with him, considered "worthless",[2] makes him an illegitimate son of a woman named Lucerna, who had a child with her father's slave, who was named Cyrus.[2] Like the Romulus of ancient Roman legend, this Romulus was also abandoned and suckled by a she-wolf. He was captured, baptized and raised by Saint Peter and Peter's companion Justin.[2] Romulus then evangelized much of central Italy and was put to death by the governor Repertian.[2]

The most ancient image depicting Romulus is a 1440 triptych in Fiesole Cathedral by Bicci di Lorenzo, where he is represented with Saints Alexander, Peter and Donatus.[4] Also in the cathedral is a collection of frescoes by Nicodemo Ferrucci adorning the vault of the apse which depict scenes from the life of Saint Romulus.[4]
