dc.description	Description: At the Valga Mevkii Settlement on the south side of the Morsynus river, approximately 3 km south of the Southwest Gate of Aphrodisias, two joining fragments of an inscribed block commemorated the construction of what was probably a small church, perhaps associated with a villa. Chaniotis dates the inscription to the late fifth century or later (RS Inscriptions 19) : "✝ This work was constructed [at the expense?/under the supervision? of - - -], a presbyteros and epoikos and the [- - -]". The titles of the patron indicate that the structure in question was a church, and the block is also engraved with a cross. ** Architectural fragments in the same general area as the inscribed block, all clearly plowed up from the adjacent fields, include marble column fragments, a curving marble crown molded block, three capitals, a marble basin, as well as agricultural blocks. These disparate architectural elements could derive from any type of monumental marble structure, such as a tomb or shrine, but the inscription and the agricultural blocks together suggest a villa-like establishment with agricultural production of which one element was a small chapel or shrine. Pottery and glass collected at the site indicate continuous occupation from the Early through Late Roman period.	en_US
