found: Catholic encyclopedia online (Anastasia is unique among the saints for having her feast on Christmas Day: her martyrdom has been commemorated at the Second Mass of Christmas since the fifth century. She was beheaded at Sirmium early in the persecutions of Diocletian. Sources differ whether she was a native of that place or a visiting Roman. The anonymous Passio Anastasiae, which makes her a Roman, dates from the sixth century)
