                    In hagiography: Miles was a Bishop of Susa. He was born near Tehran and converted from Zoroastrianism. He went on a long pilgrimage and opposed the manner of leadership of Catholicos Papa. He was imprisoned with his son Narsai and beaten by the governor Hormizd. The priest Aboursam and the deacon Sinai died with him.
