Whittow, The Making of Byzantium: 600-1025, Berkeley, University of California Press, pp. 195, 203, 215: «Azerbaijan was the scene of frequent anti-caliphal and anti-Arab revolts during the eighth and ninth centuries, and Byzantine sources talk of Persian warriors seeking refuge in the 830s from the caliph's armies by taking service under the Byzantine emperor Theophilos.
