  • The cathedral of Bari (South of Italy), one of the most remarkable examples of Apulian Romanesque architecture, was built from 12th to 13th century on the site of a more ancient church. It is essentially made of local limestones, with different types of imported white marbles employed for decorative elements. A previous study, concerning the identification of the constituent marbles used on the great apsidal window, identified their provenance as being mostly from the quarries of Mount Pentelicon and from the island of Marmara, both widely exploited in antiquity. This study allows the hypothesis that such marbles could have been obtained from decorative elements previously used in the ancient church on the same site (Calia et al., 1992). In the present work mineralogical-petrographic and stable isotope analyses have been conducted on the marbles from the main and side portals with the aim of improving our knowledge regarding the provenance of such materials and their supply. The most commonly used marbles have been identified as coming from Mt. Pentelicon, Paros and Carrara; marbles from the islands of Proconnesus, Lesbos and Naxos are also present, although in a more limited number. (literal)
