The Eerdmans Encyclopedia of Early Christian Art and Archaeology (EEECAA) is the first comprehensive reference work of its kind.
More than 400 distinguished scholars, including archaeologists, art historians, historians, epigraphers, and theologians, have written the 1,455 entries in this monumental encyclopedia.
From Aachen to Zurzach, Paul Corby Finney’s masterwork draws on archaeological and epigraphic evidence to offer readers a basic orientation to early Christian architecture, sculpture, painting, mosaic, and portable artifacts created roughly between AD 200 and 600 in Africa, Asia, and Europe.
Clear, Concise, and Accessible
You don’t need to have specialized training in archaeology and the history of art to enjoy this volume. Early Christian art has had a long-lasting influence on the history of art, and the “visual world that early Christians invented was bristling with spiritual intents and purposes.” (From the Preface.)
