Ancient roads surround the
monastery, hand-built by one of
the monks many years ago.
This mosaic of Christ is only a small part of the sixth century
Transfiguration of Christ. Stretching 20 feet across, the Transfig-
uration is in the apse of the basilica. The work has never under-
gone major restoration and is still unspoiled. It was found to have
been executed In the most refined technique--probably in the
founding period under Justinian (483-565 A.D.) or shortly after.
