Flavian I of Antioch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The two friends assembled their adherents outside the city walls for the observance of the exercises of religion; and, according to Theodoret, it was in these meetings that the practice of antiphonal singing was first introduced in the services of the church.

St John Chrysostom John, who since the sixth century has been called Chrysostom or golden mouthed, was born in Antioch of a noble Christian family between 344 and 354 AD. John was the somewhat unwilling recipient of episcopal consecration at the hands of the at least equally unwilling Theophilus. John resumed his plain speaking, which again enraged Eudoxia; Theophilus intrigued against him with appeals to an Arian council of Antioch, and John was again banished, this time for resuming the duties of a see from which he had been 'lawfully deposed'. home.it.net.au /~jgrapsas/pages/chrysostom.htm   (589 words)

Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2001.01.07   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) Michael Maas, "People and Identity in Roman Antioch," considers the city's history from the establishment of Roman control in 64 B.C., with observations on Antioch's role as a military and civilian administrative center, its urbanization, and the ferment wrought by the city's embrace of Christianity. John J. Dobbins' essay on the houses of Antioch stresses that much of the information an archaeologist would need to reconstruct the domestic world of Antioch is simply not available; critical features, such as the boundaries of individual houses and the placement of walls and doors, are uncertain. The Antioch mosaics display consistent features: continuation of the elaborate framing of center pictures derived from the emblemata, or portable mosaic inserts; emphasis on the illusions of three-dimensionality and polychromy; use of Greek inscriptions to label figures and to title scenes. ccat.sas.upenn.edu /bmcr/2001/2001-01-07.html   (2428 words)

Descendants of John Tippett I   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) When the Federal census was completed in 1800, John Tippett's widow, Susannah was named as head of the household and still a resident of Rowan Co., along with two of her children --- one son born between 1774-1784 (Thomas, who was between 16 and 26 years of age) and one daughter (16-26 years old).
