Born in County Fife, Scotland; died at Kinglassie (Kinglace), Scotland,
in 830. As bishop of Fife, Saint Glastian mediated in the bloody civil
war between the Picts and the Scots. When the Picts were
subjugated, Glastian did much to alleviate their lot.
He is the patron saint of Kinglassie in Fife, and venerated in Kyntire
(Benedictines,
Husenbeth).
