明顯保存的馬賽克可以追溯到土耳其伊茲尼克的基督教早期時代

在Beyler的基礎發掘中發現了一組非常保存的馬賽克，據信可以追溯到早期的基督教時代

A remarkable discovery of exceptionally well-preserved mosaics, dating back to the early Christian era, has been made during foundation excavations in the Beyler Neighborhood of İznik (ancient Nicaea), Bursa, reports Ancientist.

據《古代主義者》報導，在伊茲尼克（伊茲尼克（Bulsa）的伊茲尼克（Beyler Nicaea）的貝勒（Beyler）街區的基礎發掘中，據伯爾薩（Bursa）的伊茲尼克（Bulsa）的基督教挖掘中，已經進行了眾多保存完好的馬賽克，可以追溯到早期的基督教時代。

This finding comes as the newly elected head of the Catholic Church, Pope Leo XIV, prepares for an upcoming visit to the city, generating interest in its spiritual and archaeological heritage.

這一發現是隨著天主教教會新當選的負責人教皇利奧十四（Pope Leo Xiv）的準備，為即將到來的城市訪問，引起人們對其精神和考古遺產的興趣。

The mosaics, featuring iconic Christian symbols—a ship and a deer—are estimated by experts to stem from the 1st to 4th centuries AD, possibly during or shortly after the time of Jesus Christ.

專家估計的具有標誌性的基督教符號（一艘船和鹿）的馬賽克是從1到4世紀，可能是在耶穌基督時期或之後不久。

Their discovery is poised to provide valuable insight into the earliest phases of Christianity, with archaeologists and historians suggesting the mosaics could originate from the first centuries of the Christian era.

他們的發現有望為基督教的最早階段提供寶貴的見解，考古學家和歷史學家暗示馬賽克可以起源於基督教時代的前幾個世紀。

The time period and context of the mosaics place them within the time frame of the early Church Fathers and the formation of Christian dogma, which will render their figural and narrative content subject to further analysis by archaeologists and historians for the determination of their theological and historical meanings.

馬賽克的時間段和背景使它們置於早期教會父親的時間範圍內和基督教教條的形成，這將使他們的人物和敘事內容對考古學家和歷史學家的進一步分析，以確定其神學和歷史含義。

This discovery is especially pertinent as it coincides with the upcoming 1700th anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea in 2025. The council, assembled in 325 AD by Emperor Constantine, played a crucial role in defining Christian doctrine, including the formation of the Nicene Creed, Christianity’s first universal profession of faith.

這一發現尤其相關，因為它與2025年Nicaea第一委員會成立1700週年相吻合。該委員會於公元325年在公元325年集會，在定義基督教教義方面發揮了至關重要的作用，包括基督教的第一個普遍的信仰職業。

The Pope’s visit is expected to spark interest in İznik, a city recognized for its historical significance and cultural richness.

預計教皇的訪問將引起人們對伊茲尼克的興趣，伊茲尼克以其歷史意義和文化豐富而聞名。

Moreover, the excavation site lies in close proximity to an area that is believed to be associated with Maximus Decimus Meridius, the central character from the Oscar-winning film Gladiator. While the character is fictional, İznik’s tale is a fusion of history and mythology, capable of inciting both scholarship and storytelling.

此外，開挖站點與據信與奧斯卡獎贏得電影角斗士的中心人物Maximus Meridius相關的區域非常接近。儘管角色是虛構的，但伊茲尼克的故事是歷史和神話的融合，能夠煽動獎學金和講故事。

With increasing international attention on İznik, experts and cultural advocates are calling for the city and its archaeological treasures to be granted UNESCO World Heritage status.

隨著國際上對伊茲尼克的關注，專家和文化倡導者呼籲這座城市及其考古寶藏被授予聯合國教科文組織世界遺產地位。

This discovery, along with İznik’s deep ties to Christian history, may be a turning point in elevating the city’s global cultural profile.

這一發現，以及伊茲尼克（伊茲尼克）與基督教歷史的牢固聯繫，可能是提升城市全球文化形象的轉折點。

In another discovery, an amateur treasure hunter has claimed to have identified the original site of the First Council of Nicaea. The claim, which is currently being reviewed by scholars, comes just 29 April.

在另一個發現中，一個業餘尋寶者聲稱已經確定了尼卡第一個理事會的原始地點。該索賠目前正在由學者進行審查，僅在4月29日。
