Chronicle of 1234

The Chronicle of 1234 (Latin: Chronicon ad annum Christi 1234 pertinens) is an anonymous West Syriac universal history from Creation until 1234.

The author also used the lost Ecclesiastical History of Dionysius of Tell Maḥrē for his coverage of the eighth through ninth centuries.

Some of Theophilus's history now lost to us survives in the Chronicle of 1234, such as his account of the Trojan War.

The Chronicle also uses the late twelfth-century correspondence of the Syriac patriarch Michael the Great for its most recent history.

The Chronicle of 1234 is best as a primary source for events surrounding the Crusades and the Kingdom of Cilicia in the late twelfth century and early thirteenth.
