Eustathius of Epiphania
Eustathius of Epiphania was a sixth-century Byzantine historian.
Eustathius was born in Epiphania. He was probably a Christian and wrote in the time of the emperor Anastasius I a history from the fall of Troy to the 12th year of Anastasius in two parts. The chronicle was used by later historians, but only a few fragments remain preserved in Evagrius Scholasticus, the Suda and John Malalas. According to Evagrius, Eustathius's work was an epitome of pagan and ecclesiastical writers.
Eustathius is also known to have compiled an epitome of Josephus. It is likely the same as a short 13th/14th-century text preserved in Paris. It begins with Adam and Eve and reaches to the reign of Vespasian and Titus.
