                        John the ascetic built this monastery in 390 near Diyarbakir. It produced three bishops, the most famous of whom is John of Ephesus, the historian (d. 587). We know nothing about it after 600.

                    Moosa erroneously calls it "Monastery of John the Iberian" on p.304.
