Saint Aedesius of Alexandria (also Edese or Edesius) (died 306) was an early Christian martyred under Galerius Maximianus. He was the brother of Saint Aphian (or Amphianus). According to the martyrology he publicly rebuked a judge who had been forcing Christian virgins to work in brothels in order to break them of their faith so he was tortured and drowned.
