When the new cult of Christianity began spreading throughout the Roman Empire, women played very active and important roles in its growth and development. They often presided over the meetings held at the domes ecclesiae , or house-churches, functioned as patronesses of saints' tomb-shrines, and even held the title of deaconess. Gender and Domestic Space in the first Christian Basilicas demonstrates that the architecture of early Christian buildings and the spatial practices of the Christians they housed provide eloquent and overlooked testimony to the active roles of women in the early Christian Church. These same sources document women's eventual decline as active agents in ritual spatial settings. In tracing this flux, I use the domestic space and functions of the late-antique Roman house to offer a rationale for the variation among fourth-century basilicas, an interpretative strategy that transcends the famous "emperor mystique" paradigm by advancing a gender-based analysis of the social divisions of sacred spaces that developed with the expansion of the Church. In addition, particular attention is afforded to the so-called circus basilicas that housed the cult of the dead and the feasting practices, which paralleled the banquets held in Roman aristocratic households. Therefore, Gender and Domestic Space in the first Christian Basilicas argues that the fourth-century Christian basilicas incorporated the hierarchical architectural signifiers deployed in the late-antique home.
