Gisler and Puech give groundless reconstructions of the text, which is too broken to be restored.
Fragmentary Greek mosaic inscription set in a round medallion in the mosaic pavement of the nave.
Perhaps 15% of the letters, possibly even less, have survived, and since these are insignificant groups (ΟΥ for genitives, ΘΕ that can be part of θεός or of an epithet or of a name beginning with θεο-) they cannot provide a key for an interpretation.
