Note: He is best known as a mathematician and an architect. As an architect he is best known for replacing the old church of Hagia Sophia at Constantinople in 532. He is recorded as the engineer who planned the repair of the flood defences at Daras. In his book, "On Burning Mirrors," he describes the focal properties of a parabola. He described the construction of an ellipse with a string fixed at the two foci. He apparently came from a well educated family: his father was a doctor by the name of Stephanus, two brothers were doctors, one brother was a lawyer, and another was described as a man of learning.
