The Life of Theodotus of Amida is that rare thing: a securely dated
eye-witness account of life under Arab Muslim rule in the first
century of Islam, and one of the few extant texts from
seventh-century North Mesopotamia. It is imbued with local color
and contemporary detail, revealing an intimate knowlredge of the
terrain, its inhabitants and officialdom, as well as the
precariousness of the lives of those living in the borderlands
between the Byzantine and Islamic empires.
