The ancient Rabban Hormizd Monastery, former residence of the Patriarchs of the Church of the East
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.[1][2] In older historiography, he was designated as Eliya VI,[3] 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).[4][5] After the resolution of several chronological questions, he was designated again as Eliya VI,[6][7][8] and that numeration is accepted in recent scholarly works.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15]
