Databases are handy things. The truly wonderful Cult of Saints in Late Antiquity database at Oxford University allows you to search and see just what the earliest mentions are of the cultus of any particular saint. Even better, it is open-access.
Sacramentarium Gelasianum – The Gelasian Sacramentary

From my diary
The big news is that Dr Isabella Image has today very kindly sent me a rather wonderful draft translation of an anonymous 4th century text, De solstitiis et aequinoctiis, about which I have written before .

Who cleaned the couch and upholstery?
Gavin Rogers did a great job cleaning our carpet and the upholstery on our living room couch and chair. He was so pleasant to deal with and wanted to be sure we were satisfied with his work. Everything looked great when he was finished. If you need carpet cleaning, do give him a call.
Who saved us from a doggie poop explosion?
Steve G. saved us from a nightmarish doggie poop explosion (we cleaned initial mess) and helped to save our new carpet. Prompt and willing to do more than was originally asked even though probably made entire day run late. Will definitely use again in the future.
