AB According to the Vita S. Illidii written at the beginning of the twelfth century, when Saint Alyre Abbey was really flourishing, the vicus six miles from Clermont in Auvergne where Alyre was born was called Alleriacus. Although tradition places it near Dallet, on the banks of the Allier, its exact location and identification remained thus far unclear. The diplomatic documentation (end eleventh-fourteenth centuries), however, allows us to identify it with a villa turned domain, Aleyrat, of which the memory is still preserved today in the form of Leyras, on the left bank of the Allier, opposite Dallet.
