One of thirteen Greek mosaic inscriptions found at a Christian church at Evron. The church was constructed in three stages, the first in the 415 CE, the second in 442-443 CE, and the third in 490 CE. This inscription records the date as 538 according to the calendar of Ptolemais-Acre. The last four lines of the inscription are indented. The editor notes that the names Diodoros and Paulus are Greek, the name Nonos is Latin, and the name Sallou is Semitic. The inscription makes use of lunate sigmas, and the author notes that the Ν in line four has a small circle above it.
