Céligny is a commune in the canton of Geneva, Svízzera. It consists of two small enclaves of the canton Geneva into the Canton Vaud, near Crans-près-Céligny.The notable Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto, father of the 80/20 theory and Paretos Optimatality, lived in Céligny, earning him the epithet of ""hermit of Céligny"". He died on 19 August 1923 in Céligny and was buried in the small Céligny cemetery without fanfare on 23 August 1923. The engraving on his tombstone simply states Vil-Fredo Pareto.A notable resident of the town was the actor Richard Burton, who is buried there. Novelist Alistair MacLean is also buried there.
