Abstract
Based on the historical events’ analysis in the region and documentary evidence, in accordance with the “Cross-in-square” type temples’ three-dimensional compositions peculiarities, it is suggested that this type of temple was brought to Alanya from Abkhazia, and to Abkhazia - from Chersonesos and Trebizond. At the same time, the direct Constantinople influence, which could be due to the direct subordination of the Alan metropolis to Constantinople and the desire to repeat the features of metropolitan architecture and a number of compositional features in the Alanya temples, has not been excluded.
