Research Abstract |
The research focused on the religious art in late antiquity in the city of Ostia Antica, based on analysis of related archaeological evidences and investigation of the visual materials of Judaism, Mithraism, Christianity and other gods. A special attention was paid to the question how the visual images reflect the profound transformation of new religious life in the city of Roman Empire. As a result of this analysis it has become clear that the image of god, the role of interior decoration, and all moved between the end of second century and the end of third in same direction, toward the “symbolic” mode, from civic religion to community religion.
