Summary/Abstract: Is it plausible hypothesis that the geometric ornaments of the first level of the polychrome mosaic resemble the Roman custom of proclaiming a ruler, empowering with imperial power, which symbolically happened by raising on a shield? The article is an attempt to explain the meaning of the symbols on the mosaics at the Episcopal basilica of ancient Philippopolis, a locus where some of the sessions of the semi-Arian council in 343 A.D. took place.
