AEZIO DI LIDDA

Italian original Cite

AETIUS OF LYDDA. - Present at the Council of Nicaea in 325, he subscribed to the orthodox faith; but not long before, Arius had counted him among his supporters. In 330 he took part in the Arian Council of Antioch, and the historian Philostorgius accused him of having joined the party of St. Athanasius in the hope of freeing himself from the accusation of fornication, adding that he died shortly thereafter by just judgment. Cf. Theodoret, Hist. eccl., I, 5, 20; IV, 7.
