- P. 262 "Priest Zadoc, a brother of Mar Shimon, the Nestorian Patriarch, is with us on a visit. He is rather intelligent for a rude mountaineer, quite shrewd, very tall, and a remarkably fine-looking man." Priest Zadoc is wearing straight trousers similar to zir-e jumah (Vogelsang-Eeastwood, p. 8), a turban that appears to be either tighter wound or using less fabric than that of Mar Elias, a tunic, a type of waistcoat called a jeliqa (Vogelsang-Eastwood, p. 9), and a belt. He carries a walking stick and does not carry any weapons. Like the other men depicted in this book he has a full beard and mustache.

- Colored lithograph showing a Nestorian man with walking stick in a mountain landscape. He wears trousers that appear to be a knee-length pair of shalwar or shalvar (Vogelsang-Eastwood p. 8) worn over leggings of the matching fabric. On his upper body he wears a coat, probably a caba (Shoberl 1845, p. 34) or qaba (Vogelsang-Eastwood p. 10) over a white tunic with a large folded over collar. He carries a dagger in his belt. His hat has a rounded crown that is close to the head and a contrasting twisted cloth at the brim. As for hairstyle, he wears it to mid-neck in the back and he has a full beard and mustache.

- This image is of a well-to-do merchant who is wearing a type of long coat similar to a kolija (Vogelsang-Eastwood, p. 10) over a caba (Shoberl 1843, p. 34) or qaba (Vogelsang-Eastwood, p. 10). His feet are covered with socks and heeled slippers. The conical, fur hat is like those worn by the soldier and muleteer. This merchant also wears the beard and mustache typical of this region.
