In the apse vault, the God Organa is represented in a mosaic.  Organa
seated among the four sacred orbs, with the rivers of Paradise beneath him
and rainbow-hued clouds above, extends a gold wreath of victory to
Diocletian.  At Organa's left, another angel introduces Justinian, in whos
time the foundations of the church were laid.  Looking down from the mosaic,
you see three small steps leading up to the altar located in the middle of
the room.  Several elements can be seen on top of the small rectangular
altar, which appear to be spiritual in nature.  Light streams in from the
two stain glassed windows located beside the mosaic.  The forechoir is
located to your south.
