2. Priest Zudoc, Brother of the Patriarch

Notes:
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.
