CAPPADOCIAN CHRISTIANITY
Cappadocia became a refuge for early Christians who were fleeing persecution. Notably, in 1 Peter 1:1, the Apostle notes Cappadocia was among the persecuted Christian communities of Asia Minor. By the 4th century, Byzantine monks settled there and began inhabiting the rock-hewn cells.
The monks richly decorated their rock churches with amazing frescoes of Byzantine and Christian history. Thus, Biblical scenes cover the walls and ceilings. Among the paintings is Jesus on the Cross, the Last Supper, the Transfiguration, and more.
