His father took the monastic habit at the monastery of St. Philip of Agira, and then retired to a hermitage where he was joined by Sabas who also tookmonastic vows. Following an Arab invasion and famine the entire family emigrated to Calabria. Sabas and his brother Makarios then settled in the area of Merkourion, on the border between Calabria and Lucania, later moving on to Latinianon and Salerno in the wake of Arab attacks. Sabas was a great wonderworker, and his ''vita'' recounts many of his miracles. He died in Rome on February 6, ca. 990-995 (990-91, according to da Costa-Louillet, following J.B. Pitra). The ''vita'' of Sabas, which survives in a 12th-c. manuscript, was written by Orestes, Patriarch of Jerusalem (986-1006), who spent some time in Calabria as a monk and claims personal acquaintance with Sabas. He must have written the ''vita'' between 991 and 1006."<br>
