| Summary: | With the emergence and spread of Christianity, many basilicas were
built in Anatolia. The early period basilicas were generally designed in
the same form by the masters of the period. There are no pastophorium
cells in these basilicas. They usually appear as structures with a simple
rectangular narthex. Our main problem is to evaluate these basilicas
from a mathematical point of view. At the beginning of the questions to
be asked about these basilicas, did every master apply the mathematical
operation exactly? Did the masters build these structures by continuing
the traditional method or did they do it with a good knowledge of
mathematics? What kind of differences do basilicas built from region to
region? This study, which we have discussed, asks the question of the
effectiveness of traditional methods as well as mathematical methods
when building basilicas. The question of whether architects adhere to
mathematical methods and how important traditional methods can be
for them is emphasized. Moreover, our study deals with how the early
period basilicas are proportionally related. At this point, the churches
were determined and the results were obtained.
