Leaving Their Mark

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This paper analyzes early Christian graffiti found in the Basilica of the Agora in Smyrna with special attention given to their relationship to the space and how readers would have interacted with them. Using these specific examples, this paper argues that Christians identified with their faith, marked their movements, and carved out their own space in a public, shared environment.
