. A history of architecture in Italy from the time of Constantine to the dawn of the renaissance. ri was an important and thriving city through all these changes.

The aisles are low, and divided by cross-archesinto oblong groined bays, over which is a triforiumgallery as broad as the aisle, and opening into the naveby triplets of round arches under a high bearing archnearly as broad as the arch below.^ This arrangementis characteristic, and it is interesting to contrast itwith the corresponding arrangement in the Lombardchurches of the North of Italy, where the triforiumopening is a single low, large, and undivided broad and slightly projecting transept is dividedinto three square bays by a single round arch in theline of each of the nave arcades, thecentral bay being covered by a low oc-tagonal dome. A round apse openingfrom the central bay is flanked by two. ^s^
