The Three Hierarchs John Chrysostom, Basil the Great and Gregory the Nazianzen or Gregory the theologian are the three saints and theologians of Christian religion, protectors of letters and students. The Three Hierarchs are celebrated from the middle of the 11th century, during the years of Constantine IX Monomachos or Alexios of I Komnenos. Their memory is commemorated on 30 January and symbolizes the Holy Trinity, while for the first time it is celebrated as an educational festival in 1842.
