'''John Moorhead''' is the McCaughey [[professor]] of [[history]] (specializing in [[late antiquity]] and the early [[Middle Ages]]) at the [[University of Queensland]], [[Brisbane]], [[Australia]].{{Fact|date=February 2008}}

Moorhead is best known for his ''The Roman Empire Divided 400-700'', which deals with the barbarian invasions of that time. He is also fond of Pope [[Gregory the Great]] (whom he often describes as "my favourite Pope") and the teaching of [[Latin]], in which he claims to "finally have something in common with [[The Venerable Bede]]". His work with religious sources of the period has also led to an association with the university's [[Islamic Studies]] program, in which he lectures in "Christians, Muslims and Jews in the Middle Ages".{{Fact|date=February 2008}}
