Gyrovagues (sometimes Gyrovagi or Gyruvagi) were wandering or itinerant monks without fixed residence or leadership, who relied on charity and the hospitality of others. The term, coming from French, itself from Late Latin gyrovagus (gyro-, "circle" and vagus, "wandering"), is used to refer to a kind of monk, rather than a specific order, and may be pejorative as they are almost universally denounced by Christian writers of the Early Middle Ages.

- En el cristianismo antiguo, se llamaban giróvagos a ciertos monjes errantes y vagabundos, que viajaban sin un destino predeterminado alojándose en los monasterios que iban encontrando por el camino. Estos monjes no aceptaban ninguna de las reglas monásticas propias de los monjes cenobitas. El término proviene del latín gyrovăgus ( de gyrus, «giro», y vagus, «vagabundo»), que significaba «errante, vagabundo, que yerra dando vueltas». Esta práctica fue prohibida por los concilios de Calcedonia (451) y Nicea II (787). (es)

- En el cristianismo antiguo, se llamaban giróvagos a ciertos monjes errantes y vagabundos, que viajaban sin un destino predeterminado alojándose en los monasterios que iban encontrando por el camino. Estos monjes no aceptaban ninguna de las reglas monásticas propias de los monjes cenobitas. El término proviene del latín gyrovăgus ( de gyrus, «giro», y vagus, «vagabundo»), que significaba «errante, vagabundo, que yerra dando vueltas». En la Regla de San Benito se los describe de una forma más bien peyorativa: «La cuarta clase de monjes es la de los que se llaman giróvagos, porque se pasan la vida girando por diversos países, hospedándose tres o cuatro días en cada monasterio. Siempre están de viaje, nunca estables, sirven a su propia voluntad y a los placeres de la gula: en todo son peores que los sarabaítas. De su estilo de vida tan lamentable es mejor callar que hablar. Dejándolos, pues, de lado, nos dedicaremos, con la ayuda de Dios, a organizar la vida de los esforzados cenobitas». Esta práctica fue prohibida por los concilios de Calcedonia (451) y Nicea II (787). En el islamismo, se llama también giróvagos a los derviches danzantes o mevlevís. (es)

Augustine called them Circumcelliones (circum cellas = those who prowl around the barns) and attributed the selling of fake relics as their innovation. Cassian also mentions a class of monk, which may have been identical, who were reputed to be gluttons who refused to fast at the proper times. (en)
