Leo

Saint Leo the Hermit was an ascetic who lived naked, because of his severe struggle, and fell asleep in peace.

The verse of the synaxarion says that he, not overcome by the flesh before death, like the first Adam when naked, felt no shame. In one calendar he is called "Leo the Naked". No other details of his life, or of the place or time in which he lived, are preserved. He is commemorated on 1 July, according to the calendar of the Church of Greece (new style).
