Excerpts
Characterizations by Guidoboni and Comastri (2005) and Ambraseys (2009)

Guidoboni and Comastri (2005) state that the account of Ibn Tagri-Birdi (al-Nujum alzahira, V, p. 80) followed that of Ibn al-Athir. Ambraseys (2009) states that late-fifteenth century Egyptian author, Ibn Taghribirdi (ii/2.239), has a less detailed version of this passage in the year 459 a.H., which is too early.
