ΜΑΚΡΙΔΗΣ Θ., “ΤΟ ΒΥΖΑΝΤΙΝΟΝ ΕΒΔΟΜΟΝ ΚΑΙ ΑΙ ΠΑΡ’ ΑΥΤΩ ΜΟΝΑΙ ΑΓΙΟΥ ΠΑΝΤΕΛΕΗΜΟΝΟΣ ΚΑΙ ΜΑΜΑΝΤΟΣ”, Αθήνα, 193839. First edition. 8vo (24x17cm), pp.102. Original paper covers, complete with several photos of Bakirkoy (MakrikoyΈβδομο) area, today a heavily built area of Istanbul. MACRIDES was the director of Istanbul Archaeological Museum and a leading byzantinist. From 1916 to 1934 he focused in the deserted at that time village of Makrikoy (now Bakirkoy), an important district of Byzantine Constantinople. This is his final detailed scientific report, published in Athens, the year of his death. He had discovered several monasteries, tombs etc and identified the place. A rare work.
