EGLISE DE MARIANOS
Church built in 570 by the eponymous bishop, borrowing stones from the hippodrome opposite and retaining a mosaic floor
The church of Marianos was built by the bishop of the same name in 570. It is the only church to be found to the south of the ancient city, while this part of the city remained undeveloped. It is also the first one that you will meet once you pass the Arch of Hadrian. Its small size testifies to the decline of the city at that time. The church was probably built by "borrowing" stones from the hippodrome which is just opposite. It still has a very beautiful mosaic floor, although very simple, which again seems to indicate limited means.
