Augurius of Tarragona was a Hispano-Roman deacon who lived during the third century. He is recognized as one of the earliest documented martyrs in the history of Spanish Christianity. During the persecutions ordered by the Roman emperors Valerian and Galerius, he was arrested alongside Bishop Fructuosus and the deacon Eulogius. Following their refusal to renounce their faith, the three men were sentenced to death by fire in the amphitheater of Tarraco, where they died in 259.
