He was executed by the Sasanian authorities at the start of the . Miles is mentioned in the Syriac Martyrology of 411. Sozomen in his Historia Ecclesistica, written in Constantinople in the first half of the 5th century, briefly summarizes a Syriac account of the life of Miles. Towards the end of the 6th century, a fuller Syriac hagiography appeared, the Acts of Miles or Martyrdom of Miles. His story also found its way into the Old English Martyrology. (en)
