Greek monk

Mihailo Tolotos, a Greek monk who died in 1938 at the age of 82, was perhaps the only man never to have laid eyes on a woman. Milhailo's mother died when he was born, and the infant was whisked away the following day to a monastery atop Mount Athos. Tolotos spent the remainder of his life among the monks - completely isolated from female society. Women and even female animals were prohibited from entering the monastery, a tradition dating back to the founding of the retreat more than nine centuries earlier.
