interpret. One of the surfaces is decorated
with three lengthwise grooved lines.
A similar fragment was published from the
monastery of St Epiphanius where it was
interpreted as an element of a balustrade
(Winlock, Crum 1926: 47, PL XV C, D).
A few elements of the wooden
furnishings of the church bear traces of
inscriptions. Five fragments featured single
engraved letters, while fragments of tablets
revealed a painted text, possibly an
invocation of the monks.6
