	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Byzantine Architecture
		Some authorities, it is true, not only go so far as to characterize the architecture of Ravenna (exemplified in the two churches S. Apollinare and S. Vitale) as Byzantine, but even include, without further consideration, examples which in other respects recall the favourite Eastern style, viz.
		Nothing, however, seems to betray the essentially Oriental character of Byzantine architecture so much as the absence of work in the higher forms of sculpture, and the transformation of high into low decoration by means of interwoven traceries, in which the chiselled ornaments became flatter, more linear, and lacelike.
		The real architectural ornaments are forced into the background by the frescoes which take the place of the costly mosaics and which practically cover all available wall surface.

		Classical and neoclassical architecture, which tries to imitate the spirit and style of the Greco-Roman tradition, is ordered in a simple, rectangular geometry (which originally included sophisticated Non-euclidean corrections due to "entasis", the subtle curvature on Greek temples [18]).
		Vernacular (folk) architecture, which represents traditional cultural styles around the world, tends to be either more or less curved, and is sometimes profusely decorated.
		Traditional architecture, on the other hand, including that in a Classical style, tends to be explicitly fractal.
