ERMACORA | ERMAGORA

Ermacora is typical of the Udine area, Ermagora, almost disappeared, it is always from the Udine area, they should derive from the Latin surname Hermagora derived from the Greek name Hermagoras, we remember the famous sophist Hermagoras of Temno from the 2nd century a. C. quoted by Quintilian in the text, "... Posidonius disputationem quoque eius cum Hermagora sophista de generals quaest habitam perscripsit ...". additions provided by Fabio Paolucci Ermacora is a purely Friulian surname, widespread with moderate intensity in the province of Udine and extremely rare in the rest of the country. We should deal with the surname of Ermacora, name of the first Bishop of Aquileia, invested according to the sources by Saint Peter, martyred in the name of his Faith and then made Holy; the origin of the surname is therefore attributable to the cult of the Holy Martyr in question.
