basilican

For the most part, the Early Norman or Basilican forms were too low to please them in their present enthusiasm.

We have already noticed that possibly the Basilican arrangement might be providentially ordered with reference to this.

Constantinople preserved till recently a basilican church of the 5th century, that of St John Studios, 463, now a ruin.

Many Byzantine churches, both cruciform and basilican, have been excavated.

In general, Gallic churches are supposed to have been basilican, with all the poverty of the older style.
