The Archbasilica of St John Lateran is the world's earliest
cathedral. A Constantinian foundation pre-dating St Peter's in the
Vatican, it remains the seat of the Bishop of Rome, the Pope, to
this day. This volume brings together scholars of topography,
archaeology, architecture, art history, geophysical survey and
liturgy to illuminate this profoundly important building. It takes
the story of the site from the early imperial period, when it was
occupied by elite housing, through its use as a barracks for the
emperor's horse guards to Constantine's revolutionary project and
its development over 1300 years. Richly illustrated throughout,
this innovative volume includes both broad historical analysis and
accessible explanations of the cutting-edge technological
approaches to the site that allow us to visualise its original
appearance.
