Originating in the Constantinian era, Christian pilgrimage initially concentrated on the Holy Land and locations associated with the life, suffering, and death of Jesus. Soon after the allure of the shrines bearing witness to the Apostles and the final resting places of martyrs became popular destinations in East and West of the Mediterranean.
The influx of people improved the surrounding built environment and infrastructure around the sacred sites and shrines. This led to the development of an expanding network of hospices, xenodochia, baths, food production facilities, water cisterns, and monasteries to meet the needs of devout travelers. As a result of the shrines' widespread appeal, a variety of items including encolpia, pilgrimage flasks, oil lamps, censers, tokens, seals, and pendants, were produced and bought by pilgrims in an effort to preserve the benefits and blessings they had received.
The lectures will cover the accounts and travelogues, which are regarded as first-hand sources on topography, architecture, art, devotion, and sociocultural aspects, in order to address the material, spiritual, and cultural aspects of pilgrimage. The lecture will also address how pilgrimages influenced objects, material culture, and patronage in addition to the topography, cityscape, religious architecture, floors and walls decorations and epigraphy.
