I am traveling this week to Chicago to present a paper at the annual meeting of the American Schools of Oriental Research. I will be talking about the bone-carved Maenad and the Tyche fresco, arguing that their persistence into the Byzantine period and discovery in a home converted to an urban monastery is characteristic of early Byzantine Christianity in the east.
