is situated in Sīs, Cilicia. Patriarch John XII resided there in 1108. Between 1266 and 1279, it was burned three times by Egyptian troops, who also killed twenty-five monks.

Notes

Dolabani's printer erroneously included ܒܳܣܝܣ from the description as part of name. Also in Dolabani's translation of Barsoum's description ܘܐܰܘܩܕܽܘܗܝ should read ܘܰܐܘܩܕܽܘܗܝ.
