Obnova prezbiterija katedrale Sv. Dujma u doba Tome Arhiđakona

Archdeacon Thomas, who was at the head of the Split Capitol for 38 years, often had a mayor role than the bishops themselves in the ecclesiastic and political life of the city. His role was probably important in the reconstruction of the Cathedral, during the period after the fourth Latheran Council in 1215 wich probably influenced on the changes in the liturgy of the western church, and consequently in the decoration of the interior, especially the presbytery. Thoma's connection to the Franciscan reform, the encounter with St. Francis himself, as well as his numerous visits to italy, could have inspired him for the "modernisation" of the interior of the Cathedral. In this study we attept to give an integral picture of the Cathedral interior in the 13th century, only parts of wich have been preserved: Buvina's doorframes, the marble pulpit, the so-called backs of the choir stalls and stone reliefs walled in the church tower. Based on alalyses of iconography, shapes and sizes of these monuments, we can deduce that the so-colled "backs of the choir stalls" are in fact remains of Romanesque wooden choir partitions, and only logical position could be in the place of the today's stair between the nave and the presbytery, where the longer sodes colul have been placed, and the shorterones perpendiculary towards the east.
