In these cave-monasteries diverse eremitical practises have been shown, which take place in a coenobitic monastery or in a laura/lavra, which is a loose union/connection of hermits. But also an honourable hermit could withdraw himself from the community, which in the 6th-7th century was something very usual in Syria. These hermits had an alternative monastic life in comparison to other Syrian monasteries. The roots of this phenomenon however are to be found very deep in the Syrian ascetical literature
