Dr. Aho Shemunkasho begun working with Prof. Friedrich Reiterer on Ben Sira. In 2005 Prof. Dietmar W. Winkler became professor for ecclesiastical history and patristic studies, with a focus on oriental Christianity. A year later with Dr. Aho Shemunkasho’s appointment as assistant professor, the vision for a dedicated study of Syriac theology came to Salzburg.
