[Untitled][edit]

From WP:TIE:

I believe the official name of the church is Santi Cosma e Damiano, not sure what the best English article title would be. Some nice GFDL pictures there too that should probably be uploaded to commons if someone descide to translate the article. Only use the images used in the Wikipedia article though, one of the linked sites is obviously the source of the images and contain many more, however that site is lisensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 wich is incompatable with the Wikipedia. The person who run that site contributed those images to the Wikipedia article and released them under GFDL, but that only apply to those images, not the entire site. --Sherool 00:07, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The images are now moved to Commons. Kjetil_r 18:08, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Just drop a note at User:Nina-no or at her norwegian page no:User:Nina, and I'm sure she release more images. Parhaps better use her norwegian page. — John Erling Blad (no) 18:13, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Page name[edit]

The structure that the present day church resides within is part of a historical collection of classic building from antiquity. The common and proper way to address the name of the article is to keep the original title and include the present day church name similar to other articles of similar structures.--Amadscientist (talk) 04:46, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The correct title is that most commonly used in English (WP:COMMON). I would be very surprised if that was not the present name, although usage will depend on context of course. There might be a case for Santi Cosma e Damiano (Temple of Romulus) Johnbod (talk)
There are at least two buildings - The church (Santi Cosma e Damiano) and the Temple of Romulus inside the Roman Forum site. The name on the English translation of the brown forum information board adjacent to the building is "So-Called Temple of Romulus". I believe there should be two articles, not one!  SurreyJohn   (Talk) 18:56, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reference[edit]

What does the "Cfr L. Temperini" mean in the one reference? 'Cf.' means 'compare and contrast'. 'See' means 'see'. Is either of these needed, or appropriate? Vicedomino (talk) 22:36, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Medical Section[edit]

There is a lot of vagueness there. For instance, "Furthermore, for centuries, in this "medical area"[vague] Roman physicians had their meetings". Which centuries?? Roman physicians: Do you mean Galen and Gang? I have taught ancient Rome in university for forty years and never heard of a 'medical area', except on the Island of Aesculapius in the middle of the Tiber, where there is still a hospital after 22 centuries. This sounds like fluff. Vicedomino (talk) 21:38, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Structure and art[edit]

This section is too brief to account for this church's complex history. In particular, I would like to add information about the Byzantine mosaic asp.Haleyrp1803 (talk) 17:50, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here is what I am thinking so far for a bibliography. The following books were assigned in class for our unit on Byzantium and Byzantine art. They will help me place the mosaic of the church in its art history context.

Brown, Peter. The World of Late Antiquity: AD 150-750. Edited by Geoffrey Barraclough. New York: W. W. Norton & Company, 1989.
