The Byzantine architecture often combined Roman and Greek architecture. Option B is correct.

Byzantine architects were eclectic, at first drawing heavily on Roman temple features. They combined the basilica and symmetrical central-plan (circular or polygonal) religious structures which gave rise to the well known Byzantine Greek-cross-plan church, with a square central mass and four arms of equal length.
