Buriana, also known as Berriona, Beriana, Buryan or Beryan,[1] was a 6th-century Irish saint, a hermit in St Buryan, near Penzance, Cornwall. Baring-Gould identifies her with the Irish saint Bruinsech.
Life
She is said to have been the daughter of an Irish king and travelled to Cornwall from Ireland in a coracle as a missionary to convert the local people to Christianity. According to the Exeter Calendar of Martyrology, Buriana was the daughter of a Munster chieftain.[2] One legend tells how she cured the paralysed son of King Geraint of Dumnonia. Buriana ministered from a chapel on the site of the parish church at St Buryan.
Veneration
The parish church of St Buryan, St Buryan's Church, is her primary patronage. Despite her official feast being on 1st May (recorded in the Exeter Martyrology), the parish church of St Buryan celebrates her feast on the Sunday nearest 13th May, in accordance with the old May Day of the Julian calendar. In the Roman calendar of saints, her feast is kept on 4th June.[3]
