[^1: This work should be distinguished from the Arabic History of the Dynasties, which reflects a similar structure but has significant differences, including some additions that may be from Islamic sources.]

[^2: Through the 12th century, this work is largely an abridgement of Michael the Syrian's Chronicle. The portion following this is particularly valuable for its representation of events during Bar Hebraeus' own lifetime.]
