SC Martyrium
photoView of the small room to the left (north) side of the apse of the South Church—there is a similar one on the other side of the apse.
In the foreground is a portion of the chancel screen and note the depression in the apse that contained a reliquary (a box containing a sacred relic or bone[s] of a saint).
