Spolia

Everything has its uses, even the old and decrepit.

Throughout late antiquity and the Middle Ages, great shifts in ideology and territorial ownership meant that many buildings and monuments, rather than being destroyed, were modified or repurposed to better suit their new owners' desires. These modifications could be as simple as carving crosses into stones, as in the case of Roman and Greek temples in the 5th century AD, to ward off demons that resided in the previously pagan structures. The Frankish king, Charlemagne, used similar techniques in his Palatine Chapel at Aachen, taking relics from Rome and Ravenna and building them into the new structure - appropriating the style of the Roman Empire to make it abundantly clear that the Frankish Kingdom was its equal in all respects.
