ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ
Continuing Roman practices, Constantinople was decorated with a series of honorific columns and obelisks in the early period. Constantinople’s two obelisks, located in the hippodrome area and originally decorating the spina, date to the 4th century. Several commemorative columns survive, in various states of preservation. The practice was abandoned in the 6th century, only to be revived briefly in the 13th. |
