Education
By showing an example of a Medieval ambo in 360-degree view, this 3D object can contribute both to understanding the organization of the churches’ interior during the Middle Ages and to the enhancement of the Medieval heritage of Abruzzo.

Social and cultural aspects
If compared to other Italian regions, Abruzzo offers a remarkably high number of well-preserved ambos from the twelfth and the thirteenth century. During the celebration of the Mass, these architectonical elements were used for the reading of the Epistle. Abruzzese ambos were first systematically studied by the German scholar Otto Lehman-Brockhuas in his articles of 1942-1943 and 1968. The ambo of 1267 in St. Nicholas’ Church at Corcumello, in the province of L’Aquila, is the latest of the series.
