Split in two?[edit]

Surely this article should be split into two separate ones? These are two separate monuments... - PocklingtonDan 11:22, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly it could. They are very close togther, they are both linked to Galerius and I visited them at the same time, so it seemed logical to write about them together. But I don't object to the article being split. Adam 11:56, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd wait until there's enough material in both to warrant a split that won't result in 2 stubs. --Mcginnly | Natter 10:28, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

These are closely related in earlier scholarship and are integral elements of the Galerius Complex in Thessaloniki, so I do not see a problem with them remaining together. I added a note for the Palace, which might profitably have its own section under a Galerius Arch, Palace, and Rotunda article or some such.--Nefasdicere 03:51, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is enough information for two articles - separate objects, totally different purposes. I think there should be an article "Complex of Galerius" if you'd like to put everything together.--Алиса Селезньова (talk) 10:48, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Split in two articles and then create a separate article/list "Complex of Galerius" linking to the two articles. The "History" section of the current article can be added to the "complex" article while each monument will feature its own history section TynoPk (talk) 11:09, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rotunda was a temple[edit]

Although the guidebooks still repeat the idea that this was meant to be a tomb, the current scholarly opinion is that it was a temple (god uncertain). I will add some biblio later this week for both monuments. It would be good to rewrite the intro and Rotunda section to reflect current thinking, while preserving reference to the earlier ideas. I will do this unless there are major objections.--Nefasdicere 03:51, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rotunda in Bulgaria[edit]

The page Rotunda of St. George redirects here. But there's also a Rotunda by the same name in Sofia, also built in the 4th century. Zero76 03:26, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Title[edit]

Would it be sensible to rename this article the Arch and Rotunda of Galerius? The current word order is a bit off putting. ^davidiad _.: 02:38, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
