The Oxford dictionary of Byzantium

The outer archives are busy

by A. P. Kazhdan, Alice-Mary Maffry Talbot, Anthony Cutler

About this book

This is the standard research tool on 1,100 years of Byzantine history. Exhaustive in its coverage, entries on patriarchy and emperors coexist with entries on surgery, musical instruments, and the baking of bread, bringing to life this vastly important culture and empire, from the 4th century to the 15th.
