Cainnech of Aghaboe
Saint Cainnech of Aghaboe (515/16–600), also known as Saint Canice in Ireland, Saint Kenneth in Scotland, Saint Kenny and in Latin Saint Canicus, was an Irish abbot, monastic founder, priest and missionary during the early medieval period. Cainnech is one of the Twelve Apostles of Ireland〔(Grattan-Flood, William. "The Twelve Apostles of Erin." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 1. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1907. 10 Feb. 2013 )〕 and preached Christianity across Ireland and to the Picts in Scotland.〔("St. Canice", Catholic Online )〕 He wrote a commentary on the Gospels, which for centuries was known as the ''Glas-Choinnigh'' or the ''Chain of Cainnech''.〔( O'Kane, Michael. "St. Canice." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 3. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1908. 10 Feb. 2013 )〕
Most of what is written about Cainnech's life is based on tradition, however he was considered a man of virtue, great eloquence and learning. His feast day is commemorated on 11 October in the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church according to their respective calendars (Gregorian or Church Julian) with additional feast days on 1st or 14 August in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
== Introduction ==
A lot of what is known of Cainnech comes from legend. However, he is documented by Saint Adomnán (also known as Eunan), the ninth abbot of Iona who died in 704. Adomnán was a hagiographer and his greatest work ''Vita Columbae'' or ''Life of St. Columba'' contains references to Cainnech.〔(Adamnan, "Life of St. Columba", ''Medieval sourcebook'', Fordham University )〕〔(Baring-Gould, S. and Fisher, John, ''The Lives of the British Saints'', Vol.II, p.56, Charles J. Clark, London, 1908 )〕
