Synopsis
This book records, in text and picture, the discovery of an immense Palace Church erected in 6th-century Constantinople by Princess Anicia Juliana, one of the most distinguished heiresses of her time. The first evidence of the Church of St Polyeuktos was unearthed some 20 years ago and subsequent excavation campaigns over the years revealed a building of great magnificence with lavish decoration and masterly carvings, which pre-dates the renowned Hagia Sophia. Until his early death in 1992, Martin Harrison was Professor of Roman Archaeology at Oxford University. The present volume is his personal account of the excitement experienced in the course of excavation, and he relates with insight and enthusiasm the step-by-step progress of discovery as walls, passages, blocks and carvings came to light.

    Carefully packaged book- arrived wrapped in plastic bag and shipped in cardboard box. As a frequent book buyer I appreciate this as so many books are just crammed into a plastic shopping bag and sent on their way- sometimes always hanging out of the bag. I know that Midtown Book Seller books will arrive as described. Shipped promptly. I’d highly recommend them as a seller.

    Excellent experience with this eBay used book seller! The books arrived in perfect condition, as described, and their pristine condition exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most was the speed of shipping: the book arrived much earlier than expected. Furthermore, the packaging was careful and professional, ensuring the book arrived undamaged. Thanks a lot! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    Book was in very good condition as described in the listing. It looked almost new, in fact, but the pages did have some yellowing around the edges, a sign of its age. The seller did an excellent job of wrapping and packing the book for shipment, which I greatly appreciate! He has earned his 100% feedback rating, I'd say. I'm extremely pleased with the seller and this transaction. Thank you!
