Las iglesias de época bizantina en Nablus (Neapolis), Palestina
Resumen
y forma. Hemos extraído los datos de fuentes bizantinas históricas y literarias y de las samaritanas religiosas, así como de los informes de las excavaciones arqueológicas, para analizarlos y sacar conclusiones. En nuestro estudio nos centramos en la reutilización de antiguos edificios samaritanos, cristianos o islámicos para la reconstrucción o la conversión de estos edificios de cara a su adaptación a la nueva religión en tiempos de conquista. Las iglesias nunca han sido objeto de un amplio estudio arqueológico debido al enfoque bíblico de los proyectos arqueológicos en Palestina. Examinamos individualmente cada una de las iglesias en lo que respecta a la transición o integración de fases y modelos arquitectónicos. Nuestra investigación permite observar que todas las iglesias construidas en Nablus durante el período bizantino fueron de cuatro tipos arquitectónicamente distintos: la de planta de cruz latina, la central octogonal, la basilical y la rectangular. También observamos que las iglesias cristianas pudieron permanecer en uso durante la época islámica.
