Historical frame

Greek/Aegean monastic and urban contexts.

Production / use

Monument profiles are places of use/survival; the UNESCO three-monastery series is comparative.

Movement / provenance

No route among Daphni, Hosios Loukas and Nea Moni is inferred from shared typology.

Political / ecclesiastical

Monastic, imperial and regional contexts vary by monument.

Artistic relation

Shared architecture/mosaic characteristics are treated as comparison unless a source supplies directional influence.

Reception / adaptation

Later Greek traditions remain chronologically separated from Middle Byzantine monuments.

Uncertainty

Map position, proximity or visual similarity never creates a transmission edge. Follow the named source and explicit relationship records.

Geography is not transmission proofGeographic proximity, shared typology, or visual similarity does not establish influence, workshop movement, trade, or transmission direction.
