The so-called Basilica Cristiana (III,I,4) stands in the ancient city of Ostia. It is a representative building that was initially interpreted by researchers as a Christian church. However, more recent studies and considerations cast doubt on this interpretation. The construction was discovered in 1939 by Guido Calza. The building dates from the 4th or 5th century, older parts of the wall date from the end of the 1st or beginning of the 2nd century.
