  The Byzantine Church of St. Theodore was built between 494-6 AD. The complex is quite big and special mention is deserved for the adult baptistry where new believers would go down from one side of it and climb up from the other side as new members of the Church. Also, keep an eye on reused blocks with Greek and Latin inscriptions. Inscribed in a door lintel there is a lengthy dedicatory inscription also in Greek.
