a large staircase containing 20 steps and measuring about wide. A massive piscina is carved into the wall leading to a large open-air atrium. In the center of the atrium is a four-lobed fountain. At this four-way intersection, three archways remain standing in the hallways leading to the large nave and aisles of the main chapel. A pair of columns support the architrave where a gallery is located. A second altar footing can be found in the main chapel nave. The baptistery sits just down a staircase from the open-air atrium. In the baptistery there is a relief carved into the floor beneath where the ceremonial font would have been placed. The scalloped design and nature of the room would also suggest that large marble table tops were used for offerings as well as alters. Like other Roman Basilicas of the early Medieval era there is evidence of galleries that would have been used to display more mobile artwork. Additional buildings were added to the basilica complex between the 4th and 7th centuries, including a bathhouse, a garden, ground-floor stables and a martyrion. A smaller basilica was added to the complex in the 6th century. References Bibliography Anderson, M. A. (2012). Hospitals, hospices and shelters for the poor in late antiquity (Order No. 3525161).
