Moses of Chorene, also Moses of Khoren or Movses Khorenatsi (Armenian:, Armenian pronunciation: , also written Movs s Xorenac i, Movses Khorenats'i, scholars have argued for either 5th century (circa 410 490s AD), or a 7th to 9th century date) was an Armenian historian, and author of the History of Armenia.He is credited with the earliest known historiographical work on the history of Armenia, but was also a poet, or hymn writer, and a grammarian. Although other Armenians, such as Agatangeghos, had written histories of Armenia, Movses' work holds particular significance because it contains unique material on the old oral traditions in Armenia during its pagan era and, more importantly, traces Armenian history from Movses' day to its origins. For this, he is considered to be the "father of Armenian history" (patmahayr), and is sometimes referred to as the "Armenian Herodotus."
