Mezquita, Part Two, the Visigothic Bits

At the entrance to the modern building, a Roman column, 
as if to remind us that before the Visigoths, the Moors, and 
the Christians, they were there; and thousands of years of 
civilization before them...














Remnant of the Visigothic church, with a chi rho in the middle











Variations on the cross











All kinds of early Christian symbolism
