Al-Hamad also discusses some of the most important Syriac translators: Peter of Kallinikos, Sergios of Resh‘ayna, Severos Sebokht and Jacob of Edessa, in addition to the translational activities which took place in the Umayyad period as well as during the Caliphates of al-Mansur, al-Rashid, al-Ma’mun.

In the case of each scholar, the significance of their connection to the region of the Jazira and their connection to Syriac scholarship in their intellectual formation and production is highlighted.
