Saint Fana, also known as Abu Fana, Abu Fanah, or Apa Bane (Coptic: ⲡⲓⲁⲅⲓⲟⲥ ⲃⲁⲛⲉ; c. 354–395) was a Coptic hermit. The Monastery of Saint Fana in the diocese of Mallawi, Upper Egypt, is named after him. Saint Fana was born to a Christian family in Memphis, Egypt. He became an anchorite due to the inspiration of the Western Desert hermits he visited as a young man. Fana also became noted for his knowledge of the Psalms and would ultimately be linked to miracles.

  • Abu Fanah, auch bekannt als Apa Bane (* nach 354; † nach 395), genannt der Wüstenvater, war ein spätantiker christlicher Asket des 4. Jahrhunderts. Er lebte und wirkte in einem Kloster in Mittelägypten und war dafür bekannt, sich um die Kranken und Armen gekümmert zu haben. Berühmtheit erlangte er, als er angeblich durch seine Prophezeiung den Tod von Kaiser Theodosius I. im Jahr 395 vorhersagte. Der Legende nach konnte Bane 37 Tage ohne Nahrung auskommen und stand die letzten 18 Jahre seines Lebens aufrecht in seiner Mönchszelle. (de)

Bei Ausgrabungen des Klosters Abu Fana entdeckten österreichische Wissenschaftler unter der Leitung von Professor Helmut Buschhausen 1992 den Leichnam Banes. Dieser Fund bestätigte an den Muskelausprägungen, dass Bane tatsächlich Jahre im Stehen zugebracht haben muss. (de)
  • Saint Fana, also known as Abu Fana, Abu Fanah, or Apa Bane (Coptic: ⲡⲓⲁⲅⲓⲟⲥ ⲃⲁⲛⲉ; c. 354–395) was a Coptic hermit. The Monastery of Saint Fana in the diocese of Mallawi, Upper Egypt, is named after him. Saint Fana was born to a Christian family in Memphis, Egypt. He became an anchorite due to the inspiration of the Western Desert hermits he visited as a young man. Ancient sources such as Sozomen's Church Hisotory (Historia Ecclesiastica) make reference to a hermit called Benus or Banus who can be identified as Saint Fana, and who lived in the area where the monastery of Saint Fana was later built. Fana also became noted for his knowledge of the Psalms and would ultimately be linked to miracles. He is noted for his asceticism and concern for the poor. He also reportedly predicted the date of Theodosius I's death. The Monastery of Saint Fana is one of the oldest in Egypt. (en)
