Shi'i historian and poet

Cyrillona, also spelled Qurilona (fl. 4th century AD), was an early Syriac poet. He was the younger contemporary of Ephrem the Syrian. It is speculated that he might have been a nephew of Ephrem. He was a contemporary of Balai of Qenneshrin. Gustav Bickell has referred to him as the most important Syriac poet after Ephrem.
