Description
Summary:The article presents the hexagonal Proconnesian marble platform of a Byzantine ambo. The find, which is part of the archaeological-artistic heritage of the Terra Sancta Museum, bears an inscription on four sides where the names Στέφανος, Οὐάλης, Ἀρροβεβη and Ζηνόβιος appear. The author describes the find, compares it with what remains of 15 hexagonal ambos found in Byzantine churches excavated in Jordan (8) and Israel (7), and studies the inscription. Based on some clues, the author hypothesizes that the platform may have come from Nessana and probably from the church of Saints Sergius and Bacchus.
