Djuwaniyeh, Church of St. Stephen

data access 69641

The church at Juwaniye - Djuwaniyeh was dedicated to St. Stephen. The inscription found in the atrium on the south side of the church ibears the dedication to St. Stephen (https://vici.org/vici/69640/). Another inscription found near the town of Djuwaniyeh only partially preserved (https://vici.org/vici/69642/?lang=en) gives the date 554 AD. Both stele are almost certainly of the same time so the church is from this period (Butler 1929, p. 142).
