Recent evidence about the church of Panagia Scripou in Boeotia
Abstract
The Panagia Skripou is the well-known Boeotian monument securely dated in 873/74. In this paper we present observations made in 2000-2001 during the extensive restoration works and parallel archaeological research undertaken after the 1995 fire which seriously damaged the building. New findings illuminate several aspects of the monument, although they do not alter its former perspective. The structural arrangement of the building is examined and its vulnerability to the earthquakes that caused extensive damage in the past are also examined. Finally, the exact form and position of the church’s templon was revealed.
