“According to the hagiographical material, Maurice was born in AD 250
in Thebes, an ancient city in Egypt near the site of the 20th-century Aswan Dam.
He was brought up in the region of Thebes (Luxor—Egypt) and became a soldier in
the Roman army. He was gradually promoted until he became the leader of the
Theban legion, formed of 6600 soldiers. Maurice was an acknowledged Christian at
a time when the Church was considered to be a threat to the Roman Empire. Yet,
he moved easily within the pagan society of his day.”
