Ahudemmeh - ܐܚܘܕܐܡܗ
http://syriaca.org/person/67
“Ahudemmeh was a miaphysite bishop in Persian Mesopotamia. He was consecrated, towards the end of the 550s, by Jacob Burd'oyo. Known as the 'apostle of the Arabs', he founded many churches and monasteries and spread miaphysite Christianity in regions that had been traditionally held by the dyophysite Church of the East. In the mid-570s, he was martyred on the orders of Khosrow because he had baptised one of the king's sons. However, Khosrow had been well inclined towards him previously, as is recorded in Joh. Eph., EH 6.20. The king hosted religious disputations between Ahudemmeh and the katholikos of the Church of the East, probably Joseph, and declared Ahudemmeh as the victor.” 13
