Hierapolisli Agapius: Revizyonlar arasındaki fark

{{about|the 10th-century Arabic Christian historian||Agapius (disambiguation)}}

-->

 

He was a contemporary of the annalist [[Patriarch Eutychius of Alexandria|Eutychius]] (=Said al-Bitriq), also a Melchite. His history commences with the foundation of the world and runs up to his own times. The portion dealing with the Arabic period is extant only in a single [[manuscript]] and breaks off in the second year of the Caliphate of [[al-Mahdi]] (160AH = 776-7 AD) and during the time when Emperor was [[Leo IV the Khazar|Leo IV]] (775-780).

 

 

His history contains an interesting version of the [[Josephus on Jesus|Testimonium Flavianum]].
