Kallinikos or Latinized Callinicus was a Byzantine architect and chemist. He was a Jewish Syrian born in Heliopolis. He is credited with the invention of Greek fire, a naval weapon somewhat resembling the modern flamethrower. According to Constantine Porphyrogenitus, He arrived in Byzantium in the time of Constantine IV and shared his knowledge of liquid fire with the Byzantines. Callinicus’ exact formula was a carefully guarded secret, and remains unknown today. Possible ingredients include resin, asphalt, sulfur, naphtha, fine quicklime, and calcium phosphide.
Callinicus served as the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Alexandria from 14 March 1858 until his resignation on 24 May 1861. He was born in Skotina, Pieria in 1800. Callinicus died in Mytilene on 12 July 1889.
