Annotations

Markianos Church (East Church), at Babisqa. H.C. Butler recorded  the 390 on the linteln of the atrium's southeastern entrance refering to Markyanios Kyris, presbyter. The other inscription, presumably from the southern entrance to the church, bears the date 401 and mentions Markyanos as the architect..
