Это грузинский философ, живший в 11-12 веках, современник Давида Строителя. Точные годы его жизни неизвестны, а информации о нем сохранилось мало. Вероятно, он учился философии в Константинополе, а затем перебрался в грузинский монастырь на территории современной Болгарии. В конце жизни, столкнувшись с конфликтом с местным духовенством, он вернулся в Грузию. Здесь он имел связь с Гелатской академией и пользовался поддержкой царя Давида Строителя. Прежде всего он известен переводом "Первоосновы теологии" Прокла Диадоха и своими обширными комментариями, в которых старался сочетать идеи Диадоха с христианскими взглядами.
