The author presents the circumstances of the rise and development of the conception that below the oldest cathedral church in Poznań is the site of a temporary or permanent baptistery as allegedly evidenced by a round limestone bowl. Attention is drawn to the fact that so far this conception has not been supported by analysis of the source material or a detailed study of the remains of the bowl itself or the architectural remains of the purported baptistery. The author makes a reassessment of hitherto claims and shows that the state of the source material does not allow us to uphold the hypothesis of the baptismal function of the limestone bowl from Poznań. The only hypothesis competitive to the baptismal one refers to 60 analogous objects, a majority of which are beyond doubt the remains of mechanical mortar mixers. The article shows that these examples can be treated as fully justified analogies to the bowl from Poznań. The text reviews the arguments of both sides of the dispute: the baptismal and “construction” claims. Weaknesses of the argument for the baptismal interpretation are exposed. Doubts raised by skeptics concerning the interpretation of the bowl as a mortar mixer are dispelled on the basis of analysis of analogous objects. The author concludes that the interpretation of the bowl as a mortar mixer is supported by numerous analogies whereas the baptismal conception lacks such support.

The early Christian church discovered in 1920 in the Syrian territory of Dura-Europos is now the oldest meeting place of a community of followers of Christ known to us. By research of the archaeological discoveries conducted at the site, largely by the scientists from the Yale University, one finds cultural richness of the Christians in the first half of the third century. An analysis of the partially preserved frescoes filling the space of the baptistery at Dura-Europos serves as a testimony to faith and an element of characterisation of not only the of early Christian art, yet also of the richness of the spirituality of the first followers of Christ. Clearly distinguished in the domus ecclesiae, the rooms for community meetings, the teaching of catechumens and the baptistery, indicate the important process of the formation of the cultic and catechetical sphere during that period. When we analyse the iconography discovered in the baptistery, we gain an insight into the theological and philosophical foundations that underpinned the understanding of the Sacrament of baptism in the earliest period of the liturgical development in the early Christian Church.

Odkryty w 1920 roku na terenie Syrii, w Dura-Europos, wczesnochrześcijański kościół jest obecnie najstarszym odnalezionym miejscem spotkań wspólnoty wyznawców Chrystusa. Poddając badaniom odkrycia archeologiczne prowadzone w tym miejscu, w znacznym stopniu przez naukowców z Yale Uniweristy, odnaleźć można bogactwo kulturowe chrześcijan w pierwszej połowie III wieku. Analiza częściowo zachowanych fresków, wypełniających przestrzeń baptysterium w Dura-Europos, staje się świadectwem wiary i elementem charakterystyki nie tylko sztuki wczesnochrześcijańskiej, ale nadto bogactwa duchowości pierwszych wyznawców Chrystusa. Wyraźnie wyodrębnione w domus ecclesiae pomieszczenia przeznaczone na spotkania wspólnoty, nauczania katechumenów oraz baptysterium, wskazują na istotny w tym okresie proces kształtowania się sfery kultycznej i katechetycznej. Analiza ikonografii odkrytej w baptysterium, umożliwia poznanie fundamentu teologicznego i filozoficznego, jaki znajdował się u podstaw rozumienia sakramentu chrztu w najwcześniejszym okresie formowania się liturgii Kościoła wczesnochrześcijańskiego.
