A bit further on the same terrain there is a well that supposedly once held water that cured Job from leprosy. I also read the well sprang up after he thumped the ground with his foot.

In a similar vein I read (at the site of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism) "According to the rumors, when IV. Murat is on his military campaign to Baghdath, he had a break in Eyyüp Nebi Village and stays for one night. He dreams that “ the place where you rest is the position of Prophet Eyyüp. Build a mosque and a mausoleum to the location where your horse whinns and hits his leg three times to the ground when you awoke”. "

Two boys who brought me to the site posed at the well.
