stylite


A stylite (from Greek στυλίτης, ''stylitēs'', "pillar dweller", derived from στῦλος, ''stylos'', "pillar", ''ʼasṯonáyé'') or pillar-saint is a type of Christian ascetic who live on pillars, preaching, fasting and praying. Stylites believe that the mortification of their bodies would help ensure the salvation of their souls. Stylites were common in the early days of the Byzantine Empire and the first stylite was probably Simeon Stylites the Elder who climbed a pillar in Syria in 423 and remained there until his death 37 years later. Stylites today, such as Maxime Qavtaradze, continue to devote their lives to God atop pillars.
==Ascetic precedents==
Palladius of Galatia (chapter 48) tells us of a hermit in Palestine who dwelt in a cave on the top of a mountain and who for the space of twenty-five years never turned his face to the west so that the sun never set on his face. St. Gregory of Nazianzus (''Patrologia Graeca'' 37, 1456) speaks of a solitary who stood upright for many years together, absorbed in contemplation, without ever lying down. Theodoret assures us that he had seen a hermit who had passed ten years in a tub suspended in midair from poles (Philotheus, chapter 28).
