                    A certain Jacob of
                        Seert is mentioned in some East Syrian sources as a disciple of Abraham of Kashkar and
                        described as the co-founder of a monastery near Siirt and Arzun (in the region of
                            Bohtan) which
                        he established together with an otherwise unidentified monk, Mar
                            Ḥbisha, at an unknown date in the sixth century.
                    In hagiography: Over time the identities
                        of Mar Ḥbisha (which means "recluse") and Jacob became
                        conflated into a single saint, "Jacob the Recluse", commemorated by the
                        Church of the East on October 19.
