Agapius was a Christian bishop in Caesarea Maritima who lived during the early fourth century. Following the leadership of Theotecnus, he faced persecution under Roman rule and was arrested in AD 304. After enduring two years of imprisonment and various instances of torture, he was eventually brought before the emperor Maximinus. He is remembered for his steadfastness in his faith, which led to his eventual execution in AD 306.
