Saint Orestis came from Tyana in Cappadocia. During the period of Diocletian persecution, after the pressures that were exerted on him, they failed to convince him to embrace the idols, they stripped him naked and beat him and flogged him for punishment. He was then thrown into prison for seven days. At the end of the seventh day, when he again refused to worship the idols in front of the ruler, he ordered that his ankles be pierced with an iron chain, which was tied to an unruly horse which was released and dragged the Saint behind him. In this martyrdom Saint Orestes surrendered his spirit to the Lord.
