Moses Khorenatsi, also known as Moses of Chorene, is among the most
problematic historians of early times. Known as the Father of
Armenian History, he was a skilled philosopher and rhetorician
whose History has been used as a textbook for many centuries. Using
extensive research into the pre-history of the Armenians and the
seventh-century History of Bishop Sebeos, Gabriel Soultanian sheds
light on the obscure areas of the History and its creator. Combined
with the Assyro-Babylonian sources, he confirms the majority of the
names, ancient sayings, demotic tales and events that Moses records
and throws light on many other frustrating or ill-understood
problems. In the process he also solves the problem of dating
Khorenatsi and his work, a hitherto controversial subject not
helped by conflicting and unfounded theories expounded by scholars
previously on the subject.
