Mor Hananyo Monastery (Turkish: Deyrulzafaran Manastırı, Syriac: ܕܝܪܐ ܕܡܪܝ ܚܢܢܝܐ; Monastery of Saint Ananias) is an important Syriac Orthodox monastery located three kilometers south east of Mardin, Turkey, in the Syriac cultural region known as Tur Abdin. Mor Hananyo Monastery was the headquarters of the Syriac Orthodox Church from c. 1160 until 1932.[1]
It is usually better known by its nickname, the "Saffron Monastery" (Syriac: ܕܝܪܐ ܕܟܘܪܟܡܐ, Dairo d-Kurkmo[2]; Arabic: دير الزعفران, Dairu 'l-Za‘farān[2]) which is derived from the warm color of its stone. Syriac Orthodox culture was centered in two monasteries near Mardin (west of Tur Abdin), Mor Gabriel and Deyrulzafaran.[3]
