Initiative for Christian Antiquities

The Initiative For Christian Antiquities is designed to support research projects regarding baptisteries of the early Christian world, including the development of a database, website, and virtual archive. The initiative also sponsors archaeological excavations to discover and assess ongoing damage to important Christian heritage sites.
