The architectural style of these old churches is still retained in the construction of many Orthodox Churches today
Well done, love these videos 😊

5:03 the basilicas are the places for the soldiers who typically had a slightly different religion, like Mithraism, which was the most popular form of Zoroastrianism in the Roman Empire because all the soldiers were in the Mithraic order, before Christianity and the Aryan Christian Church after Christianity. The Mithraic eques element becomes the medieval knights basically. The horsemen class. You have to understand how hard it is to breed war horses and how guarded those horses were as their most prized friends and family. This horse breeding tradition proves that the dark ages weren’t really dark, just quiet, as the church of the soldiers consolidates powers for various reclamations of the greater medieval confederacy.
