Opis

This is a Syriac text written, in all probability, by an inhabitant of Edessa almost immediately after the conclusion of the war between Rome and Persia in 502-506 AD. The Chronicle also vividly describes the famine and plague that swept through Edessa in the years immediately before the war.
