Caesarius considered this as a mockery to the Roman State religion and ordered her execution. Tryphaena was one of the many martyrs who gave her life to Christianity. Roman officers threw Tryphaena into a red hot oven then tied her from a high tree to throw her into sharp spears and then they took her away to be devoured by carnivores. When the Roman soldiers realised that the Lord preserved her unharmed, they finally threw her to a mad bull, which tore her apart. Tryphaena finally died.

Poseidonius said a shipwrecked sailor from India had been rescued in the Red Sea and taken to Ptolemy VIII in Alexandria . The unnamed Indian offered to guide Greek navigators to India. Ptolemy appointed Eudoxus of Cyzicus, who made two voyages from Egypt to India. The first, in 118 BC, was guided by the Indian sailor. After Eudoxus returned with a cargo of aromatics and precious stones a second voyage was undertaken in 116 BC. Eudoxus navigated the second voyage, sailing without a guide. Strabo, whose Geography is the main surviving source of the story, was skeptical about its truth. Modern scholarship tends to consider it relatively credible. During the 2nd century BC Greek and Indian ships met to trade at Arabian Peninsula Arabian ports such as Aden called Eudaemon by the Greeks . Attempts to sail beyond Aden were rare, discouraged, and involved a long and laborious coast hugging journey. Navigators had long been aware of the monsoon winds. Indian ships used them to sail to Arabia, but no Greek ship had yet done so.
