Thanks for scanning that in, Stas. That's a pretty impressive structure! Just where is this being reconstructed in Kiev? St. Sophia was constructed from 1037-1066, three quarters of a century later. I didn't know there was any structure of real substance going back to 989.

I trully dont know where all I know is that this structure was first building in Kievan Rus that was not made of wood.

[StasUA]
