Life
Venerable Claudian was a monk and reposed in peace after a holy life. He is commemorated on 27 January (new style) in the Greek synaxarion.
A verse of the synaxarion says that the lover of souls receives him, seeing the choice beauty of his soul. No other details have survived in the source consulted; the calendar lists him on the same day as Clement the Stylite, Peter the Egyptian and others.
