The Holy Xenofon provided for the construction of a medium-sized monastery complex, and wrote a Testament or Typiko (Book of Rules), which regulated different issues of the operation and communal life of the fathers in the Monastery. After Xenofon resigned as Abbot in 1018, the leadership of the Monastery was assumed by his brother Theodoros, who directed the Monastery at least until 1035. That year was the first time the Monastery is mentioned, obviously after.
