Rasyphus and Ravennus

Saints Rasyphus (Rasiphus) and Ravennus (French: Saints Rasyphe et Raven, Ravenne) (fifth century) are venerated as Christian saints and martyrs. According to Christian tradition, they were natives of Britain who fled their country during the Anglo-Saxon invasions. They settled in Gaul and became hermits. They were then martyred, perhaps by Goths who adhered to Arianism. The myth of foundation associated with the parish church of St-Aubin in Macé, Basse-Normandie, states that the two saints founded their hermitage near the site of the current building, near a miraculous spring of water.
