The unpublished remains of marble crustae from late Antique Milan are here presented.

Abstract

The unpublished remains of marble crustae from late Antique Milan are here presented. They covered the walls of two buildings of imperial commission in Milan: the Imperial Mausoleum and the Basilica of San Lorenzo (4th–5th C. AD). The comparison between the two buildings allows the formulation of hypotheses on the supply, reuse and use of this type of decoration for two buildings that were designed less than one century apart, but in two definitely different political contexts.
