Sabbas (Sava, Saba, or Savva) the Goth is a martyr and Christian saint. He was born in 334 to Christian parents in a village in the Buzău river valley and lived in what is now the Wallachia region in Romania. His Act of Martyrdom states that he was a Goth by race and may have been a cantor or a reader to the religious community there. His relics were taken by St Sansala and hidden by the Christians until they could be sent for safe keeping to the Roman Empire. Here they were received by Bishop Ascholius of Thessalonica.
