St Regulus of Scotland Biography

- Regulus of Saint Andrew
- Riagal
- Riaghail
- Riaghai
- Rule
St Regulus of Scotland was born in Scotland. He was the Bishop of Patras, Greece. He was also a custodian of the relics of Saint Andrew the Apostle. In 345 AD he received a vision telling him to take the relics to the west and to establish a church with the name Saint Andrew.
He and some companions, including Saint Damian of Scotland were wandering to the west, and in 347 landed at Kilrimont where he built the church, the earliest in Scotland. Regulus is commemorated in the Aberdeen Breviary.
