In the course of time, however, a series of famous writings of a rather peculiar nature was ascribed to the Areopagite. They were long known to be a later fabrication in his name ( pseudepigraphia ) and so were ascribed to the " Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite" who has been identified in modern times with an obscure Georgian writer, Peter the Iberian, a Georgian Bishop of Majum (452-491).
Dionysius was also popularly mis-identified with the martyr of Gaul, Dionysius, the first Bishop of Paris, Saint Denis.
