| résumé de l'AIEMA | :
Altıntepe church is paved with mosaics except in the pastaphorion chamber. The mosaics consist of rectangular panels decorated with various geometric and floral components as well as many animal depictions. The semi-circular mosaic of the apse that is much destroyed was also decorated with geometric motifs.
Besides the pavement, fragments of mosaics indicate that the walls, ceiling and arches were also covered with mosaics and wall paintings. It is possible to date the Altıntepe church mosaics to the mid-6th century A.D. (Emperor Justinianus I). (Excerpt from the author’s abstract.) |
