Summary/Abstract: Part of a lower building was uncovered during the third and fourth seasons of excavation at the site of a church in Selib 1. Finds from the fill between floors confirmed the early dating of the oldest church (6th/7th century). Two buildings were examined in the vicinity of the inner peribolos: BN.13, which proved to be a domestic dwelling from a later phase (11th–12th century), and BS.13, identified as a structure of religious function built before the 9th–10th century.
