Abstract
Description
At the time of this photograph (2016) the Church of the Nativity was undergoing restoration. The main entrance represents three time periods. If one follows the top of the white sign to the right toward the scaffolding, one can see Part of the lintel and the supporting stone corbel from the Justinian era. Below it is the top of an arch that represents the Crusader era entrance.
