's death.
Aper officially broke the news of Numerian's death in Nicomedia (İzmit) in November 284, though Gibbon represents the occurrence of this event at Heraclea, in Thrace, and the discovery, which the prefect attempted to conceal, as due to the forwardness of the soldiery, who forced open the Imperial tent to investigate for themselves the situation of their invisible monarch.

, a city of Upper Egypt known as Antinopolis in the Roman world.
If the martyrdom of Saint Moura took place under Decius, then it should have been prior to June 251, the date of the death of this emperor.
If the martyrdom's presumed date of 283 AD is correct, it should then have taken place under the reign of Carus or his sons Carinus and Numerian.
