Notes: Athanasios of Meteora was born at Neopatras in 1305 and died at Meteora in Thessaly on April 20, 1383. He was the founder of a cenobitic community of 14 monks for whom he drafted a short rule and built a church dedicated to the Theotokos (which was later rededicated to the Metamorphosis). His anonymous Life (BHG 195) was written sometime after 1388. For further details, cf. the Oxford Dictionary of Byzantium, v. 1, p. 219-220.
