Yuhanna ibn Bukhtishu (Johannes Bukhtishu) was a 9th-century Persian〔Philip Jenkins, ''The Lost History of Christianity'', (HarperCollins, 2008), 78.〕 or Syriac physician from Khuzestan, Persia.〔(Islamic Culture and the Medical Arts ), U.S. National Library of Medicine〕〔''The first Persian Muslims, who replaced the Persian Christian physicians (bukhtishu' and Maswaih or Masua), was Ahmad b. Al-Tayib al-Sarakhsi (died 900)''.(Frye, Richaard, ''Heritage of Persian'', Mazda Publishers Inc, fourth edition published in 2004, pages 163-164)〕 Yuhanna ibn Bukhtishu‘ (or Bakhtishu‘) was a member of a prominent family of Nestorian Christian physicians originally from Jundishapur in Khuzastan who worked in Baghdad from the 8th through the 10th centuries. The name is composite of middle Persian Bukht (saved)〔D. N. MacKenzie, A Concise Pahlavi Dictionary, London, 1971〕 and Syriac Ishu' (Jesus), which means saved by Jesus or one whose saviour is Jesus. Yuhanna ibn Bukhtishu was the illegitimate son of Jabril Ibn Bukhtishu (d. 870CE) who was physician to the caliphs al-Ma'mun, al-Wathiq and Al-Mutawakkil in Baghdad. Ibn Bukhtishu‘, who worked in Baghdad about 892CE, is known to have written a treatise on astrological knowledge necessary for a physician, but the treatise is now lost. It is uncertain whether he was in fact the author of a treatise on materia medica that is attributed to him in the extant copies, of which The National Library of Medicine has one. ==See also== *List of Iranian scientists *Bukhtishu, Abdollah ibn. *Bukhtishu, Gabriel ibn. *Bukhtishu 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yuhanna ibn Bukhtishu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
