Bishop of Marmarica
Attested. The pair of names is stable in the historians. Details of his teaching beyond the refusal are not.
Theonas, a Libyan bishop, refused to sign at Nicaea and was exiled with Arius and Secundus of Ptolemais. With Secundus, he is the named pair. Other bishops who disliked the wording still signed, or signed with reservations.
