$a The half-title reads, 'Algérie - Le Monastère Byzantin De Tébessa'. The work is an account of one of most impressive examples of early Christian architecture in Algeria - a complex of buildings made ca. 400 A.D. to the north of the Roman garrison-town of Thevestis (Tebessa). It consists of two avenues (one with a monumental arch at each end), a fountain-garden, lodgings or stables and a three-aisled, arcaded basilica-type church with semicircular apse and a triconch martyrium on the south side. The martyrium may have been dedicated to St Crispina (d. 304), and the complex probably served as a pilgrim centre. Plates 1-5, 9, 10 (phototypes) show plans, elevations, sections, details and views of the basilica complex in its actual state. Plates 6-8 (chromolithographs) show mosaics. Plates 11-14 (phototypes) show plans, elevations, sections, details and views of the basilica in conjectural restoration. The in-text illustrations (photozincotypes) show views and details of the complex. |
