Could this late Roman account of the life and death of St. Sebastian include a description of an ancient computing device similar to the mysterious Antikythera Mechanism?

--> It is said that a relic of the top of Sebastian’s cranium may be seen to this day in the church of St. Sebastian in Ebersberg, Bavaria. A good summary of the remaining relics and their locations may be found in St. Sebastian's entry in Butler's Lives of the Saints.
