This book examines the function and development of the cult of
saints in Coptic Egypt, focusing primarily on the material provided
by the texts forming the Coptic hagiographical tradition of the
early Christian martyr Philotheus of Antioch, and more
specifically, the Martyrdom of St Philotheus of Antioch (Pierpont
Morgan M583). This Martyrdom is a reflection of a once flourishing
cult which is attested in Egypt by rich textual and material
evidence. This text enjoyed great popularity not only in Egypt, but
also in other countries of the Christian East, since his dossier
includes texts in Coptic, Georgian, Ethiopic, and Arabic.
