Bizans'ın Gizli Tarihi - Hasan Ali Yücel Klasikleri

Prokopios (500-565): The famous Byzantine historian became the private secretary and legal advisor of Commander Belisarios in 527. He participated in campaigns in Iran, Africa and Italy and closely watched the wars fought there. In 560, Prokopios was given the title of illustres, which was given to very few people, and in 562 he became the Byzantine city administrator.
