&description=Portico as elements of high value in the exterior of the building will be the subject of my study. Their treatment as architectural and decorative values will be realized as part of churches with inscribed cross. Churches with inscribed cross are used in the Byzantine empire with defined typologies and special features. The porch is a long and narrow exonarthex. Often it is closed with columns or arcades. Situated at the entrance to the church and traverses across its width. Exonarthex does not form an integral part of the main body of the church but is a single well known structure and placed against the church. Exonarthex is a recent borrowing into architectural nomenclature. The practices of the early church that required an exonarthex were abandoned early, but the architectural bits lived on. The porticoes we encounter in our churches are several types. Most important are those who participate in the function of the building.&picture=http://www.aascit.org/aascit/decorators/img/journal/973.jpg)
