Keywords: Byzantine period, monastery, Samaritan, Jewish, Christian, Greek, epigraphy
A Greek dedicatory inscription uncovered in the mosaic floor of a triclinium in a villa at Herẓliyya was dated based on the shape of its letters to the Byzantine period, in the fifth century CE. The inscription seems to have been written by the mosaicists, who ask for the mercy of a certain sovereign power, herein identified as God.
