Abstract:
Excavations within the Ḥorbat Ḥadat church revealed several mosaic floors, a marble chancel screen post and a limestone column capital. The mosaic floors were laid in the early phase of the church and continued in use during its later phase. All the carpets and panels exhibit geometric and floral patterns made in a variety of colored tesserae. The low chancel screen post has a groove for fitting a chancel screen panel and two holes with metal remains, probably for fitting an offerings table. The capital bears an engraved cross within a circle.
Note:
With an English abstract.
