Sir Charles William Chadwick Oman, KBE, FBA (1860–1946), was a renowned British military historian whose scholarly work traversed various epochs, yet his contributions to Byzantine studies are particularly noteworthy. Born on January 12, 1860, in India, Oman later attended Oxford University, where he fostered his interest in history. His scholarly career was primarily associated with Oxford, where he served as a professor, and his expertise was well recognized, seeing him knighted in 1920 and made a Fellow of the British Academy.
