Rus Viking Exploration Sketches 2

Exploring possibilities for the newly built Byzantine Eastern Church  in the town

The Walls of the town, Postern and Main gates, since the town is a slave trading centre, Im playing giving the design a prison feel

The eastern trade route was built on slave trading, that is what the Vikings supplied which Arab markets needed. So the background to the town is that its a slave trading centre and from this, I have been playing with the idea that its a large prison of sorts, to keep the slaves from escaping as well as acting as a hub for trading.
