Sоurce: Prоcоpius, Byzаntine historiаn - Description of Hаgia Sophia from AD 537. The emperor...collected together workmen from every land. It is indeed a proof of the esteem with which God regarded the emperor, that he furnished him with men who would be so useful in effecting his designs, and we are compelled to admire the wisdom of the emperor, in being able to choose the most suitable of mankind to execute the noblest of his works.... A spherical-shaped dome standing upon this circle makes it exceedingly beautiful; from the lightness of the building, it does not appear to rest upon a solid foundation, but to cover the place beneath as though it were suspended from heaven by the fabled golden chain. No one ever became weary of this spectacle, but those who are in the church delight in what they see... Moreover it is impossible accurately to describe the gold, and silver, and gems, presented by the Emperor Justinian, but by the description of one part, I leave the rest to be inferred. That part of the church which is especially sacred, and where the priests alone are allowed to enter, which is called the Sanctuary, contains forty thousand pounds' weight of silver. QUESTIONS: 1. How does Procopius describe the church of Hagia Sophia? 2. What information does he provide about Byzantine culture and religion? Your answer must be in your own words- do not use direct quotes.
