Aspects of Urban Planning in Bet She’an-Scythopolis
Intercity roads, colonnaded and drained streets, agoras and forums of the Roman and Late-Antiquity city of Bet She’an-Scythopolis—all have been widely studied, producing an ample bibliography. Not so are alleys, although they must have served various functions as thoroughfares for foot traffic or in relation to the buildings that overlooked them. These buildings could have been domestic, commercial or public, causing the function of the alley to …
Ḥorvat Gilon and other monasteries that were not
The fragmentary inscription in the church of Ḥorvat Gilon can be almost entirely reconstructed, revealing the date (given by the era of Creation, corresponding to 531/2 CE), the name of the then bishop of Sepphoris-Diocaesarea, and the name of the martyr patron of the church. The restored text indicates that this was not a monastery church but a village church. The reconstruction also reveals the existence of an earlier text, part of which was su…
Baḥan — The Inscriptions
Five inscriptions, set in the mosaic floors of the church at Baḥan, were published in the past more than once on the base of a transcription made in situ, as neither the mosaics not photographs were available when the inscriptions were studied. Visual documentation has now become available for almost all the inscriptions, and it has showed that the transcriptions were defective. The published editions must therefore be corrected, and in some case…
The Greek Inscriptions from ‘The Church of St. Peter’ at Bethsaida (el-‘Araj)
In 725 CE Willibald bishop of Eichstätt in Bavaria visited and stayed overnight at a place called Bethsaida, where he visited a church said to have been built on the location where the house of Peter and Andrew had formerly stood. In 2021 a Byzantine basilica was discovered at the site of el-‘Araj, on the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee. Three Greek inscriptions adorned the mosaic floor of the church, one of which mentions ‘The chief of the …
A Recently Discovered Church at Ashdod-Yam (Azotos Paralios) in Light of Its Greek Inscriptions
The recently discovered church at Ashdod Yam is unique in several respects. One is its early date, the beginning of the 5th century at the latest, as is revealed by its rich epigraphic yield. Second, the large proportion of women among the dead buried within its walls, most if not all of them deaconesses. The third unexpected feature in the church inscriptions dated by an era year (five out of thirteen) is the chronological system consistently us…
Four New Burial Inscriptions and a Survey of the Nessana Necropolis
Workers of the Israel Nature and Parks Authority discovered two Byzantine Period, Christian, tombstones written in Greek on limestone slabs south east of the mound of the ancient city of Nessana. One of the stone slabs is a nearly complete top of an anthropomorphic stele bearing the epitaph of a woman named Maria dated to the last decade of the 6th century. This discovery led P. Betzer at the head of a team of IAA archaeologists to conduct a dron…
