Nusaybin, Turkey - 25.05.2011: A syriac priest can be seen in the Mor Augin Monastery, located in the Tur Abdin, a mountainous area of Turkey just north of the syrian border. || The Mor Augin monastery is one of the oldest monasteries of the world, dating back to the 4th century and is now only re-inhabited by Monk Joken, who moved into the monastery in 2011 after it stood empty for 30 years due to the cicil war between the PKK and the turkish army.
