dc.descriptionWall of the Garden tomb which is marked with a graffito that was painted by Greek Christians (c. 500 CE) which is a symbol of Jesus Christ. This likely dates to when the site was related to a Christian monestary and the tomb used as a burial place for monks. This is a reproduction. The original is beneath a layer of preservation plaster. The letters on the cross: IC XC. (Jesus Christos/Jesus Messiah) and A W (Alpha and Omega -- the Beginning and the End).
