Dalmatia, Salona, Bishop Hesychius, letters of St. John Chrysostom

Sažetak
In the epistolary corpus of the renowned Church father, St. John Chrysostom, which consists of 240 letters written between AD 347 and 407, there is one addressed to Hesychius, Bishop of Salona, which St. John sent from his exile. This letter as well as the whole corpus are vital sources not only for reconstruction of historical events in the Christian Church of that time and John’s life in exile, but also on the earliest period of Christianity in the Empire, including the Roman province of Dalmatia. The objective of this paper is to examine the archaeological evidence of the early Salonitan Church tied to Hesychius and his personal reputation, which St. John Chrysostom held in high enough regard to send him a letter asking for help in ending his own exile.
