Cummene Find

Cummene Find (Latin Cummeneus Albus, "Cummene the White") was the seventh abbot of the monastery of Iona, from 657 to 669. He died on 24 February 669. Our sources describe him as an abbot, not as a saint, and mention no veneration, feast day or miracles; so we cannot say that he is venerated as a saint.

He was a kinsman of Saint Columba, of the dynasty of the Cenél Conaill, nephew of Abbot Ségéne mac Fiachnaí and great-⁠nephew of Lasrén. He visited Ireland in 661. When Finan of Lindisfarne died in 661, Cummene sent Colmán to succeed him as the third abbot. During his abbacy the Northumbrians decided, at the synod of Whitby in 664, not to adopt the Irish dating of Easter, and the monastery of Lindisfarne passed out of the control of Iona. He also wrote a book on the miracles of Saint Columba, used as a source for Adomnán's Life of Columba.
