                    In hagiography:
                        Daniel of the Monastery of
                            the Dung Beetles was a refugee from Amida and student of
                            Mar Mattai
                        (his story mirrors the one of Behnam). He established a monastery near that of his
                        teacher, Mar
                            Mattai, with whom he had fled from Amida. The monastery he
                        established was called the monastery of the yellow source. There was a
                        miracle of protective beetles connected to this monastery.
