Summary/Abstract: Excavations of recent years the temple complex of the Kruze basilica in the North-east area of Chersonesos allow (based on archaeological and numismatic materials) reasonably argue that its construction took place in the era of Justinian the Great. Schematic layout of the temple (with attached rooms to the east) is even more original than previously imagined.
