Hello! I am a student at San Francisco State University, and as a class project I will be adding information in regards to the Basilica of St. John. Thank you.SeijiX (talk) 05:51, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Destruction

This article would benefit greatly from an account of how/why/when the basilica was destroyed or fell into ruins. As of now I am left scratching my head. — AJDS ^talk 03:57, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fresco or Mosaic?

The article says the basilica would have been covered inside with fresco. Fresco would have been a highly unusual choice for Byzantine craftsmen and architects; they almost always used mosaic. Are we sure this is true, or is it a translation error? Phaesphoria (talk) 21:46, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

so, what happened?

The lede says that the place is ruined, and then the article tells us about when it was built and what the building was like… and then it stops. What happened? Why did people abandon it? Marnanel (talk) 04:47, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
