Person
Secundus of Ptolemais
bishop in 325
Bishop of Ptolemais in Libya
Attested. The refusal and the exile are in Socrates, Sozomen, and the Nicene narrative tradition. A fuller biography would be invention.
Secundus refused to sign the Nicene creed and was exiled with Arius and Theonas of Marmarica. He is one of the two bishops the church historians consistently name as holdouts. His later life is too thinly reported to summarize.
