Life
Saint Maitiun (or Maitrun) is mentioned in Rhygyfarch's Life of Saint David: Boducat and Maitiun, two saints in the province of Cetgueli (Kidwelly), gave David their hands and became his disciples. The reading of the name is uncertain, and the Welsh version gives Naitrum. Nothing more is known of them. The veneration is local, without synodal canonization.
