Abstract
Five mosaic inscriptions adorned the halls of the Byzantine-period monastery at Ḥura, four of them in Greek and one is bilingual. One inscription belongs to an early phase of the building, from the late fourth or early fifth century CE, while the other inscriptions belong to the monastery of the sixth century CE. Two of the latter inscriptions contain dates within the last quarter of the sixth century CE.
