Athanasia of Aegina (c.790 in Aegina – 15 August 860 in Timia, Greece) was a Byzantine saint and abbess. Athanasia's hagiographer called her "this praiseworthy woman, who bears the name of immortality, who lived her life admirably". She is known by one hagiography, written by an anonymous writer shortly after her death and published in 916. She was born of noble parents and received a standard education for girls at the time. When she was seven years old, she experienced a vision that inspired her to enter a convent. Her parents forced her to marry not once but twice, the first time at the age of 16, to a soldier who was killed in battle a little over two weeks after they were married, and the second time to a man who also chose to enter the religious life.
