Antony of Choziba

Antony of Choziba,[lower-alpha 1] also called Antony the Chozibite (fl. 634), was a Byzantine hagiographer from the monastery of Choziba. A disciple of George of Choziba, he wrote his teacher's biography (Vita sancti Georgii chozebitae) and also an account of some miracles attributed to the Virgin Mary (Miracula beatae virginis Mariae in Choziba).[1] Both his works have been translated from Greek into English.
