Paved mosaic of two rows of black letters with no border. Horvat Hanot seems to have been a road station between Jerusalem and Beth Govrin at which a church was located. The title of hegumen which the priest Theodorus bore suggests that there was also a monastery in this location. The meanings of two words in the inscription are noted to be unclear: πέπμα and προσθήκα. The first, it seems, refers to the back wall of the sanctuary. This wall seems to have been partly faced with marble and, as the editor points out, partly painted with figures (ζωγραφία). She indicates that προσθήκη is a difficult term to deal with, suggesting that it ought to be understood as "addition" in this context, though to what exactly it refers is unclear. Di Sengi dismisses the idea that is refers to an apse, instead proposing that it refers to a nave. She concludes this based upon other its context, other attestations of the word and Lampe's lexicon of Patristic Greek. The issue is further clouded, however, by the only partial nature of the excavation of this site. The dates 563/564 CE, 578/579 CE, 593/594 CE, and 608/609 CE all took place during a twelfth indication and are thus all possible, though the author favors the two latest options as the most likely. The inscription makes use of lunate sigmas and large miniscule omega's rather than their majuscule equivalent.
