| There can be no doubt that the first churches in Constantinople were in the basilican form. |
| In 1989 the remains of a basilican drill and exercise hall was discovered, so far unique among the auxiliary forts of the Roman Empire. |
| The building is basilican in plan with service spaces and exhibit spaces on either side of a central circulation spine. |
| These two examples of the basilican style are clear and distinct. |
| A basilican church with a centrally planned eastern end, Santo Spirito is ringed by semicircular chapels opening off the dome-vaulted side aisles, the transept, and the apse. |
| The interior of the basilican body, as we already mentioned, is divided up into three naves by two rows consisting of nine reclaimed columns surmounted by capitals of obvious classical origin. |
