A fact from Kalenderhane Mosque appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the
Did you know column on 27 May 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:
|
1. When was the extant structure constructed?
2. What is the Byzantine hall church? The term is usually applied to German churches.
3. Please translate "Theotokos tom Diakonisses" or "Christos ho Akaleptos". This wikipedia is supposed to be written in English.
4. The listing of the "main architectural examples of a domed Greek cross church" is rather frivolous (and unsourced), as it ignores the churches of Greece.
5. How did the frescoes on the life of a Catholic saint appear in an Eastern Orthodox church? -- Ghirla -трёп- 01:02, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

I tried to create an account but found the process too lengthy. I am the co-director of the Kalenderhane Archaeologicl Project and co-editor of the final publication volumes. The basic article is somewhat improved but there are still errors: The excavated remains of buildings were not dated "on the basis of masonry" but rather from precise coin finds in stratigraphic excavation. In reply to the questions, most are answered in our book, Cecil L. Striker & Y. Dogan Kuban, Kalenderhane in Istanbul: The Buildings, Mainz, 1997. In reply to specific questions: 1. The extant structure contains many building phases. Its main features date from the reconstruction in the years 1197-1204. We did not "bring the building back to its 12th c. condition." We restored each phase with respect to its date of construction. It is we who carried out the restoration under the authority of the Vakiflar General Directorate. 2. There is no such thing as a "Byzantine hall church." The term is sometime incorrectly applied to a basilica plan. This has nothing to do with the German gothic "Hallenkirchen." 3. Mother of God Diaconissa (an epithet of the Virgin). Christ the Ungraspable. 4. The Krautheimer typology was conceived by him before first publication of this survey in 1965. Since then the field -- and the late Prof. Krautheimer -- thinks rather differently about his typology. (Kratheimer was my teacher so I know whereof I speak.) 5. The St. Francis frescos were painted during the period of the Latin Crusader occupation of Constantinople. Wikipedia should delete questions reflecting utter ignorance of the subject. 72.78.43.116 17:30, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
