Early Christian

Early Christianity was first recognized in 330-800 C.E. It began with the death of Christ in ancient Judea, an eastern outpost of the Roman empire. The emperor Constantine recognized Christianity as a valid religion in 313 C.E. Christians were finally able to display holy artifacts as well as have houses of worship. One of the most popular places to worship was the Basilica.

Here's a few examples..



Another thing that I found interesting based off of the limited information that is available is the furniture that was available during this period. Although all that is mainly available are pictures, I can tell that they were big on carvings and details.
