The annexes surrounding the Octagon at the archaeological site of Philippi, Greece, are auxiliary structures that complemented the central eight-sided building. These ruins, including stone foundations, walls, and architectural fragments, illustrate the complexity of early Christian architectural design and the functional spaces associated with religious and communal activities. Preserved within the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the annexes provide valuable insight into the urban and spiritual life of early Byzantine Philippi.
