Cyril

Japanese: キュリロス
Cyril
Christian evangelist born in Thessaloniki, Greece. Together with his brother Methodios (c. 815-885), he evangelized the Slavs and was called the "Apostle of the Slavs." He was the first to create the ancient Slavic alphabet (Glagolitic script) and to translate parts of the Bible into Slavic. The Cyrillic alphabet, which is the prototype of modern Russian writing, is named after him, and is believed to have been created in the 10th century in Bulgaria.
