Architectural location

Side chamber associated with the eastern sanctuary at Nerezi.

Liturgical function

Surviving monument evidence

Nerezi provides the current source-bounded architectural example.

Reconstruction boundary

The functional identification is qualified in the source and remains qualified here.
