San Pietro at Otranto: Byzantine Art in South Italy took for granted the applicability of the adjective "Byzantine," which had been used in all previous publications about the church. 1 It was built during the period of Byzantine hegemony in southern Italy (c. 880-1071), and I dated its first stratum of fresco decoration to c. 1000. Yet the succeeding fresco layers, which are the best preserved in the church and which required much longer explication in the monograph, were all post-Byzantine, if still mostly medieval in date. Should these later frescoes still be called "Byzantine"? If political affiliation is not necessary for cultural identification, does the answer depend on how "Byzantine" they look, and if so, in what aspect(s) of the paintings does "Byzantine" inhere? Is it a question of iconography, style, composition, or technique, or does it have to do with Greek-language inscriptions or with Orthodox liturgical usage? A consideration of a single monument heretofore Common Knowledge 18:3
