The crypt, rock cut and comprising of two spaces, was located under the floor of the southern aisle, at its eastern end. The second space extended under the sanctuary. A flight of six steps led down into the crypt from the square, eastern room of the southern wing. The crypt had two oval spaces. The first smaller than the second, located farther north. The passage between the two was blocked at some later time. |
According to one tradition, the crypt was the burial place of St. Stephen, the protomartyr. |

A bema was probably built already in the 1st construction period, but its shape is unknown due to the considerable later rebuilding. During the Abbasid period (or Ottoman) the bema was widened, the new stylobate was biult further to the west from the anticipated earlier stylobate (partially covered the mosaic of the 1st phase). The bema preserved so far was, most probably, was U-shaped, but nothing is known about its openings, except of the central one in the western side. |

There is a disagreement betwenn Corbo and Cousnon on the existence of a gallery prior to the 11th century. The disagreement arises from two columns, about 3.5 m. high, that originally formed one coluמm and are located around the inner circle today. Causon believes that this is a column from the fourth century that was cut in the restoration of the 11th century. Corbo believes the column belonged to a previous pegan temple and was cut prior to the 4th century. Cousnon believe is supported by the outer wall of the hall which survived to the higeht of 11 m. and has no evidence to a second floor. The gallery was open to the center with haevy piers above the piers of the lower level; and groups of two columns and a smaller pier above the columns of the lower level. |
The tomb is located west of the center of the inner circle, inside a round plaza, 3.5 m. in diemeter, suronned by a ring wall. According to the Pilgrim from Placentia (570 C.E) and Arcluf (679-688 C. E.) the tomb was hewn from one stone block. |

Rows of stones with bone remains was located under the original floor of St. Menas chapel, not excavated. Seven tombs were discovered in a trench dug in the main basilica, parallel to the southern wall. Six of the tombs were individual burials, on containing a child, and the seventh was full of bones and skulls. Two additional skeletons were discovered in a trench dug in the nave between the western pair of pillars. Doe to the character of the excavation, a stratigraphic sequence could not be established. |
