Elijah, Eliya, or Elias of Nisibis (Classical Syriac: ܐܠܝܐ, 11 February 975 – 18 July 1046) was an Assyrian cleric of the Church of the East, who served as bishop of Beth Nuhadra (1002–1008) and archbishop of Nisibis (1008–1046). He has been called the most important Christian writer in Arabic—or even throughout non-Christian Asia—during the 11th century. He is best known for his Chronography, which is an important source for the history of Sassanid Persia. (From Wikipedia)
