Greek magical literature probably influenced descriptions of this kind which one may note not only in the Mazdeans' polemics against Christians in the Sasanian Empire, but also in the Eastern Syrian Christians' polemical literature against heretics. The present article deals with the rapport between Christians and Mazdeans using the analysis of a very particular and ambiguous practice in the Syriac Christian milieu: the use of a mixture prepared from "martyrs' dust". This study examines how Christians who used it appeared as men of power and mediators in the social life of Iran, specially among the Zoroastrian population.
