Santi Cosma e Damiano Rome, Italy

Comment by Max Yakovlev on January 14, 2014
Dear sirs!
After the recent Sts. Cosmas and Damian’s feast (14.11) I would like to ask: did you know about any investigations concerning their lives? An obvious fact that there are historical parallels among the three pairs of the Saints. Besides, it seems to be incredible that through a merely ONE century there were as much as THREE pairs of holy brothers-unmercenaries (extremely rare kind of holiness), moreover bearing the same names!
I would appreciate any information of that kind.
With respect,
Max A. Yakovlev,
