The magkipeion of Megisti Lavra, Mt. Athos
Abstract
This study examines the building of the magkipeion (the place where bread was made) of Megisti Lavra on Mt. Athos, one of only a very few preserved old monastic magkipeia. Following an examination of its building phases and various features, a dating for the building to the 16th century is proposed, as well as the graphic reconstruction of its original form.
