ΕΙΣΘ + ΥΓΙΑ ΓΕΡΜΑ

εἷς θεός + ὑγία Γερμανός

(There is) one God....health....Germanus(?)

εἷς θεός ὑγία Γερμανός

This lintel is broken on the right side with an unknown number of characters missing. The inscription opens with the common Christian formula "(There is) one God...," which is usually followed by "[and his Christ] who helps..." with a person or household specified. An inscription from Baziher suggests one way the term ὑγία might have been placed in this type of door lintel: "εἷς θεὸς ὁ βοηθῶν πᾶσι. Ζοή. Ὑγἰα." An encircled cross, cut in relief, sits to the left of the text here. The name Γερμανός is well attested. Dimensions refer to entire remainder of stone.
