As these are non-literary works, Hunger excluded them from his handbook, and so did the few mono- graphs on Byzantine historiography that came after it.5 As a consequence, there are no specific studies on Byzantine chrono- logical writing after that of Gelzer—mostly outdated and focused not on Byzantine chronological writing but on reconstructing Africanus’ chronography from Byzantine evidence—although its use as a source by relevant chroniclers such as Theophanes Confessor has been often highlighted.6 Chronological writing adopts different forms provided with their own specific characteristics.	cache/grbs-16035.pdf	txt/grbs-16035.txt
