Maroun of Syria

We have absolutely no idea about where exactly Saint Maron was born and raised. The dates of his birth and death are not yet determined with a great degree of certainty[1].

About his life, Telamon believed that Maron was either a student or a colleague of Asbisimas who was famous between 364 and 387[1].

About his death, we know for sure that Jacob and Linmaus lived a monastic life in the open for 38 years, the same way Maron lived, after they have went to him. If we accept the hypothesis of the date of birth put inReligionis Historia[1], then we will conclude that Maron was still alive around 406 and 407 A.D and therefore he could have died between 407 and 423 A.D...
