By combining archaeological and architectural research with a study of the Syriac Liturgy to explore how worship evolved on the Syrian Limestone Massif in Late Antiquity, this volume proposes a solution to the long debated question of why only approximately 50 of these bemata have been discovered amongst many thousands of late antique churches in Syria. It charts the evolution of the early liturgy in Syria and seeks to explain how the location of the Limestone Massif in the hinterland of Antioch may have affected the development of worship in the region. 410 0$aTexts and Studies in Eastern Christianity$v1. 606 $aBemas (Architecture)$zSyria 606 $aLiturgy and architecture$zSyria 606 $aArchitecture, Early Christian$zSyria 606 $aChurch architecture$zSyria 615 0$aBemas (Architecture) 615 0$aLiturgy and architecture 615 0$aArchitecture, Early Christian 615 0$aChurch architecture 676 $a726.5/29 700 $aLoosley$b Emma$0897954 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820571303321 996 $aThe architecture and liturgy of the bema in fourth- to-sixth-century Syrian churches$94104594 997 $aUNINA
