I adapted this from a Greek Orthodox Church's site. It might seem a bit too hagiographical so feel free to edit to avoid any bias. I tried to tone down most of what it said and I may just start over from scratch later this week depending on the reaction.--T. Anthony 19:36, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Rename

The name of the Saint in Greek "Kyriakos o anachorites" (the Anchorite) not of Athens.--Kupirijo 14:04, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

What I have in my menaion is Cyriacus the hermit of Palestine. InfernoXV 14:17, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
That is also correct. In Greek he is called the anchorite. Maybe hermit is another way to say anchorite. --Kupirijo 01:24, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Err, yes, that's what I meant. I don't know where the 'of Athens' bit came from. He was originally from Corinth after all. InfernoXV 13:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
So which one of the two do you prefer? --Kupirijo 16:43, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Cyriacus the Anchorite makes it very precise and clear, I think it's the better of the two.InfernoXV 17:53, 31 March 2007

I agree. Can you please rename it then? Thanks, I appreciate it. --Kupirijo 23:19, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
