Elwenとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Elwen (also known as Elvan, Elven, etc.) was the name of an early saint or saints venerated in Cornwall and Brittany. The hagiographical material asserts that he came to Cornwall from Ireland in the company of Breage and six others, but this is attested late. A chapel in Sithney parish, Cornwall, has been dedicated to Elwen since the 13th century, and in Brittany several sites and placenames are associated with possibly related figures.
