Open Question

Eusebius spent nearly all of his career at Caesarea Maritima, and scholars generally assume this was also his birthplace, but no ancient source states it directly; the assumption rests on where he later lived and worked rather than on a record of his birth.

What would resolve this A contemporary or near contemporary source naming his birthplace independent of his adult career.
