Adrian, also spelled Hadrian, was a Berber scholar in Anglo-Saxon England and the abbot of Saint Peter's and Saint Paul's in Canterbury. He was a noted teacher and commentator of the Bible. Adrian was born between 630 and 637. According to Bede, he was "by nation an African", and thus a Berber from North Africa, and was abbot of a monastery near Naples, called Monasterium Niridanum.
