Ayasofya __ "Ayasofya" is another
spelling for Hagia Sophia. "Probably Istanbul's most famous landmark, the Hagia
Sophia (also spelled Ayasofya) was built by the emperor Justinian I in the year
537 AD. Built in only six years, the structure was designed by the architects
Anthemius of Tralles and Isidore of Miletus. On May 7, 558, the dome of the
church collapsed due to a December 557 earthquake, and though a new dome was
quickly rebuilt, historical records tell us that it was not identical to the
original." You will find a good article and images. Learn how a computer model
of the ancient church is being created. Byzantine architecture photos. -

Byzantine Architecture
__ "In the early Byzantine period, as wide a diversity of styles is seen in
ecclesiastical architecture as in art. Two major types of churches, however, can
be distinguished: the basilica type, with a nave flanked by colonnades
terminating in a semicircular apse and covered by a timber roof; and the
stone-vaulted centralized church, with its separate components gathered under a
central dome. The second type the stone-vaulted centralized church was dominant
throughout the Byzantine period." You will find a good overview of Byzantine
architecture ranging from church to fort to palace along with click-to-enlarge
