1180. North Church. On the
the “North Church”, in the east
center of the town, perhaps 100
yards north.of the “Cathedral”. The
inscription is incised upon the face
of the lintel, above the mouldings.
This space was originally 2.50 m.
long·; but about 20 cm. have been
broken off from the left end. The
inscription begins 2 cm. from this
break, and is 2.21 m. long, ending
7 cm. from the end of the mouldings.
The space is 10 cm. high, the letters
5^2 to 6 cm. All the letters are
perfectly clear and legible: the
letters AM of άμύν are executed in
double lines, giving the appearance
of relief.

1181. Doorway. On the lintel of a doorway within a small vestibule, about
30 yards north-northeast of the east end of the North Church. The whole lintel is
about 2.60 m. long, and 73 cm. high. It is ornamented by a trapezoidal door-cap
with rather elaborate mouldings, 1.73 m. long at the top, 1.56 m. at the bottom, and
55 cm. high. The inscription is on the next to the lowest fascia of the cap. It is
incised, in letters 5 cm. high. It begins at the left end of the fascia, and was never
finished. Copied by Professor Littmann.

1182. Church. On the keystone of an arch near the east end of the north
wall of the “Cathedral” and connecting the north aisle with a small chapel. Div. II, b,
p. 306. The remains of a moulded course, which may have run above this arch, were
found upon the ground; but nothing now remains in situ above the arch. None of
the pieces of the moulded course mentioned show traces of an inscription ; but I think
that the first part of the inscription must have been above the arch. At least two
