35 The orientation of the byzantine church and the geometry of the apse. Light and space are interdependent.
36 Sunlight incidence in the apse. In a large number of Byzantine churches the incidence of sunlight onto the altar during mass, has been observed. A shaft of light falls onto the bread and wine as they are offered to God. The shaft of light is the (antidoron) return gift of God which is the descent of the Holy Spirit which transformed the human gifts into the Flesh and Blood of Christ. In order for the shaft of light to become visible the church had to be turned toward the appropriate direction and windows had to be opened of the appropriate number and size. Also, it was important for the window jambs to have a proper tilt. So the church main axis was determined based on this function.
37 Τα ζητήματα που έπρεπε να αντιμετωπιστούν The incidence of a light shaft onto the Altar occurs on a certain hour of the day on a certain celebration date. It falls precisely onto the side of the altar where the priest stands performing the liturgy. The time in which this phenomenon takes place is the third Byzantine hour, that is, midmorning. The position of the sun in the sky differs according to the season in regard to the azimuth angle and height. The celebration date is the original dedication date. The large cathedrals because of their frequent use are often orientated toward the third hour of the Equinox so that they can capture the light in various days of great feasts during the year.
38 Παρατηρήσεις The geometry of the apse differs greatly from one church to another. Various polygons or semicircles or partial arcs, or even strange shapes are formed. The variety of polygons is often attributed to stylistic preference. The orientation of the main axis differs greatly from one church to another. The number of windows also differs from one to two to three to six to a continuous one of very large size. The windows vary in size and distance among them.
39 Two examples These principles are derived from the study of 6 th century churches. Hagia Sophia, Instanbul. Hagia Sophia is orientated toward the Third Hour of the Equinox. It receives a shaft of light on Christmas day from the southernmost apse window on the third hour of Christmas day. The church is dedicated to the Nativity of Christ. The angular difference of the light shaft between these two dates for the third hour is 24.6 degrees. The closest regular polygon that posseses such an angle is the heptagon. This method has been tested in other churches of the same period but also on much later ones such as the church of the 18 th century of Xeropotamou on Mount Athos. It has been proven that is responsible for the dodecagon of the apse plan of this church as well.
