Tiberius - ܡܠܟܐ / ܩܣܪ

http://syriaca.org/person/3268
Tiberius was commander of the imperial bodyguard and helped Justin II secure the throne after Justinian's death in 565. After the onset of Justin's illness in 573, Tiberius used his influence at court and effectively ruled the empire together with Justin's wife Sophia. In late 574, he was made Caesar and he became sole emperor after Justin's death in October 578. John of Ephesus portrays Tiberius as the antithesis to Justin, as a tolerant ruler who did not allow the persecution of the miaphysites.5
