| Popis | The article?examines the question of what purpose ivory diptychs had in the early Christian era.?The author focuses specifically on the possible presence and use of these diptychs in the baptismal liturgy during the first three centuries of the Christian Roman Empire. Given the absence of any direct evidence to confirm or refute the?hypothesis that ivory diptychs were used in the baptismal rite, it is necessary to understand the important role that panels (not just ivory ones), and the material itself, played in Late Antique society?in general. |
