A circular font, 1.8m in diameter, is located in front of the apse. Four stairs led in from the east. A second circular font, 1m in diameter, might had served for the baptism of children. Two other rectangular basin, on the north, might have served for pre-baptismal ablution.
The larger earlier basin, that predates the chapel with its circular font, might have functioned |

Decorated mount engraved in an ashlar stone block for an icon of Saint John. The ashlar is decorated with wine trellis and the inscription "St. John" above a halo, seems to had served as a mount to hold his icon (see architectural members; https://dig.corps-cmhl.huji.ac.il/sites/default/files/styles/large/public/illustrative_material/gregg_2000_532_ph._12.jpg?itok=GapSe2eR ). Dauphin suggested that the Martyrion mentioned in another inscription served to hold relics of St. John retrieved from his desecrated tomb in Sebaste in 361-2, during the reign of Julian the Apostate. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the rebuilding of the early chapel the Martyrion was moved to the burial chapel to the west from the church. It was connected with the burial cave. |

In the southern aisle, a staircase of eight steps leading to a crypt accessed from the west. A rectungular room, 1.7X3.5m and 2.4m high, built of roughly hewn ashlar atone with remains of plaster. Ottoman period oil lamps and modern tras was found inside. |

Above the crypt was a unit facing south, built of ashlar stones in a semicircle facing south and paved with dressed flagstones that bore remains of plaster. Fragments of a baptismal basin were found around the church.
The curved southern wall of the baptisterium (W39) also severed as the southern wall of the church; it was probably added after the church structure was already standing. |
