Note 186 — Chapter VIII · ZÂKHÔ TO DIYÂRBEKR May 10—June 4
Reading edition
The Jacobites and the Syrians (i.e. Jacobites who have submitted to Rome) have now ousted the Nestorians, who must have been the first to occupy the Ṭûr ’Abdîn. When this change took place I do not know, but the Nestorians were in possession of the monastery of Mâr Augen as late as 1505: Pognon, op. cit., p. 109.
