Menas i Afrodyta. „Dewocjonalia” z sanktuarium świętego Menasa

Research at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Abu Mena reveals that devotional objects, including ampullae and figurines from the Late Antiquity sanctuary of St. Menas, exhibit continuity with earlier Greco-Roman artistic traditions in Egypt while adapting to a new Christian context. The study analyzes their forms and iconography, demonstrating how established iconographical types persisted despite religious shifts. This finding underscores the resilience of artistic heritage in sacred spaces during periods of cultural transition.
