Saint Domice:

Saint Sauve (Salvius)

Feast Day: October 29

Saint Sauve who was thought to have died in 615 followed Honoré as bishop.  He had been abbot at Montreuil-sur-Mer.  It was under his tenure as bishop that the relics of Firmin Martyr were found, as depicted in the tympanum above. 

Three Saints

Sometimes identified as Fuscien, Warlus and Luxor.  However, the relics of Warlus and Luxor were not in the cathedral and it is more probable that Fuscien is accompanied by his companions Victoric and Gentien, evangelists who came to the area in the 3rd c. and all executed.  Their relics were discovered during the tenure of Bishop Sauve, as depicted on the south transept portal.  The first figure carries a sword, appropriate for one who has found martyrdom.  It is a little puzzling to find the other figures carrying scrolls--they actually look more like prophets than martyrs.
