Notes

“Metropolitan of Tagrit.”1
In hagiography: Marutha of Tagrit was born near Balad and became a monk of the monastery of Mar Zakkay and then at Mor Matay. He became the first Maphrian of the Syrian Orthodox Church in the Sasanian empire.
Dolabani's spelling of "Marutha" in Syriac should have an 'a' vowel instead of an 'e' vowel at the end: ܡܰܪܘܬܶܐ ܕܬܰܓܪܝܬ.
