Byzantines effect on preservation and blending of Greek, Roman, and Christain contributionan

One of the most significant contributions of the Byzantines was their preservation of ancient Greek and Roman texts. They copied many manuscripts that would have otherwise been lost to history. This allowed for the continuation of classical education throughout Europe. The Byzantines also blended Christianity with classical culture. They incorporated Christian themes into their art and architecture while still maintaining elements of Greco-Roman style.
