 Saint Martial - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saint Martial was the first bishop of Limoges, in today's France, according to a life of Saturninus, first bishop of Toulouse, which Gregory of Tours quotes in his History of the Franks.
Martial was buried outside the Roman town, and as his tomb became progressively more important as a pilgrimage site, the monks found patronage in the Benedictine order in the 9th century.
The mythology culminated in the 11th century forgeries of Ademar of Chabannes, The Life of St. Martial, attributed to Bishop Aurelian, his successor, which was designed to 'prove' that Martial had been present at the Last Supper and at the crucifixion, and was indeed one of the original apostles.

Martial (Marcus Valerius Martialis), Latin epigrammatist, was born in one of the years AD 38-41, for, in book x., of which the poems were composed in the years 95-98, he is found celebrating his fifty-seventh birthday (x.
Martial in many places shows an undisguised contempt for the artificial kind of epic on which Statius’s reputation chiefly rests; and it seems quite natural that the respectable author of the Thebaid and the Silvae should feel little admiration for either the life or the works of the bohemian epigrammatist.
Martial was to Rome in the decay of its ancient virtue and patriotism what Menander was to Athens in its decline.

 Nouvelle page 1
About the year 576,Grégoire de Tours mentions that Saint Sernin was sent to the Gauls with six other bishops, Martial being one of them, during the Consular government of Dèce and Gratus (circa 270).
Martial's companions were to outlive him and be buried with him in a basilica-crypt built on the site of a former Gallo-Roman graveyard located outside the City, as was then the custom.
Martial was born in the Orient; he was sent forth by a Roman Pontiff to evangelise our region, probably at the end of the third century.

 Lives of the Saints, December 18, Saint Gatian
Saint Gatian, a disciple of the Apostles and the first bishop of Tours, was sent to that city at the same time as Saint Denys to Paris, Saint Trophimus to Arles, Saint Martial to Limoges, Saint Saturninus to Toulouse, Saint Sergius Paulus to Narbonne, and Saint Austremoine into Auvergne.
The Saint was often interrupted in his instructions by harassers, and when denounced to the magistrates, was mistreated and threatened with death; but no contradictions or sufferings were able to discourage or daunt this apostle.
Saint Gatian established outside the city, a cemetery for the burial of Christians.

 Ademar's Life
The monks of St. Martial thus wanted to have him proclaimed a saint by the populace and the Church, and throughout the eleventh century attempted to accomplish this goal.
The monks decided that Martial should be considered a saint, and ultimately believed that he had been a disciple of Peter.
Benedict was a prior from the monastery of Chiusa, and met with the canons of the cathedral at Limoges the night before the ceremony for St. Martial to plan the denunciation of the Cult of St. Martial.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Martial
According to it Martial was born in Palestine, was one of the seventy-two disciples of Christ, assisted at the resurrection of Lazarus, was at the Last Supper, was baptized by St. Peter, etc.
As to what concerns St. Martial, it has been clearly proved that we must honour in him not one of the seventy-two disciples of Christ but the first preacher of the Christian faith in the Province of Limoges, and that we should not go beyond this.
Martial seems to have been accompanied by two priests brought by him from the Orient, so he himself may have been born in that region.

 Limoges, Saint-Martial crypt (Haute-Vienne)
Soon, Saint Martial's tomb became the place of an important devotion and progressively gave birth to a pilgrimage and, in the 9th century, to the Benedictin abbey of Saint-Martial, glory of Limoges and of the Limousin region.
This abbey was razed in the 19th century and only a few manuscripts from its outstanding library have remained along with the archaeological crypt which was converted between 1966 and 1970 and still shelters the tombs of Saint Martial and of his fellows Alpinien and Austriclinien.

 Gatianus of Tours - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As with other founders of the seven Catholic churches of Gaul, especially Martial, Gatianus became confounded in later Christian mythology with the "seventy-two disciples of Christ", alleged to have been sent into Gaul during the first century, by Saint Peter himself.
The cathedral, originally consecrated to Saint Maurice, was reconsecrated to Saint Gatianus at its 13th century rebuilding.
In the lore of the Catholic Church, during the consulship of the Emperor Decius and Vettus Gratus (AD 250), Pope Fabian sent out seven bishops from Rome to Gaul to preach the Gospel: Gatianus to Tours, Trophimus to Arles, Paul to Narbonne, Saturnin to Toulouse, Denis to Paris, Austromoine to Clermont, and Martial to Limoges.
