Among the numerous churches and monasteries in this area, several buildings are dedicated to Mor Barṣawmo, an ascetic saint from the fifth century. This paper analyses how this figure became the patron saint of some churches dedicated to ascetic and eremitic religious practices. The second part of the paper includes a catalogue of churches and monasteries dedicated to Mor Barṣawmo and compares the material characteristics they share to establish a map of a cult phenomenon that seems to appear after the twelfth century in the region.
