Abstract

Abstract This article discusses a subterranean building, situated north of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople, which was investigated during a recent interdisciplinary survey conducted by Çiğdem Özkan Aygün. Although it is generally accepted that the edifice had more than one phase of use, the date of its original construction and utilisation has been problematic since the building is not mentioned in any written sources and was either not included in other archaeological excavations and surveys or not studied intensively. The aim of this paper is to present the underground building in detail and to propose a date for its construction based on the new survey data and on ancient written sources about the church of Hagia Sophia. Archaeological data from previous surveys are also taken into account. The subterranean building’s different phases of use are documented, and it is proposed that it was originally used as a reliquary, then later, after a number of alterations, became a cistern.

解读君士坦丁堡圣索菲亚大教堂北院的地下建筑(地下室)
本文讨论了位于君士坦丁堡圣索菲亚大教堂北部的一座地下建筑,这是Çiğdem Özkan ayg最近进行的一项跨学科调查的结果。虽然人们普遍认为这座建筑有多个使用阶段,但其最初的建造和使用日期一直存在问题,因为该建筑没有在任何书面资料中提及,也没有包括在其他考古发掘和调查中,或者没有进行深入研究。本文的目的是详细介绍地下建筑,并根据新的调查数据和关于圣索菲亚教堂的古代书面资料提出其建造日期。以前调查的考古数据也被考虑在内。地下建筑的不同使用阶段被记录下来,并提出它最初被用作圣物箱,后来,经过多次改建,成为一个蓄水池。
