Details
Eliya VI (Syriac: ܐܠܝܐ / Elīyā, d. 26 May 1591) was Patriarch of the Church of the East from 1558 to 1591, with residence in Rabban Hormizd Monastery, near Alqosh, in modern Iraq. In older historiography, he was designated as Eliya VI, but later renumbered as Eliya "VII" by some authors, who believed that during the period from 1558 to 1591 there were two successive Eliya patriarchs (first in 1558-1576, and second in 1576-1591). After the resolution of several chronological questions, he was designated again as Eliya VI, and that numeration is accepted in recent scholarly works.
