Biography

Aurelia was the wife of Dynamius, patrician of Gaul, governor of Marseille. Pope Gregory wrote to Dynamius, ep.3.33, reporting that he has received the money from revenue in Gaul through Hilary, and sends him a cross with relics as a gift; in 4.37, Gregory says he is sending a letter to Dynamius about condemned doctrines; and in 6.6, he tells king Childebert of the Franks, that he is sending a priest to govern the patrimony for Dynamius, who is apparently unable to do it.
