                    In hagiography: John the Camel-Driver was
          commemorated in Thomas of
            Marga's Book of Governors.
          In this account, Maran Zha, bishop of Ḥadita on the Tigris, heard a camel driver singing Syriac chants among the Arab camel
          drivers. This man, John, had been a Syriac bishop of the Egyptian diaspora before he was
          captured by the Bedouins. He was entombed near Ḥadita, but only his habit was
          found.
