Santa Eulalia monument, Merida, Spain, 2007. Eulalia of Merida, according to her hagiography, was a Roman Christian child martyred in Emerita, the capital of Lusitania (modern Merida in Spain) during the persecution of Christians in the reign of emperor Diocletian and his co-emperor Maximian. Others place her death at the time of Trajan Decius (AD 249-51). There is some dispute as to whether Saint Eulalia of Barcelona, whose story is similar, is the same person.
