Summary/Abstract: This work presents new information about the ciborium from the Kotor cathedral of St. Tryphon, for which a part of the scientific world believes it does not represent a whole, but rather fragments of several related ciboria. We attempt to answer the question as to whom this ciborium was dedicated and when it was erected. By analysing the available sources, it can be concluded that the ciborium was constructed during the eighth decade of the 12th century, back in the days of bishop Nikephoros II and that it was dedicated to the Kotor saints Andrew, Peter and Lawrence.
