Two Notes on Heraclius

View through CrossRef
REB 37 1979 France p. 221-227 W. E. Kaegi, Jr, Two Notes on Heraclius. — The author concludes that a letter from the senate of Constantinople to the Persian King Chosroes II in 615 contains an allusion to the continuing resistance of Komentiolos, brother of Phocas, after the execution of Phocas in October, 610. The letter provides additional proof of the importance of the revolt in inhibiting attempts to arrange peace between Chosroes and Heraclius. The author also suggests that a possible inspiration for some of Heraclius 's strategy against the Persians was a neglected composition that John Lydus attributed to Emperor Constantine I.
