Summary[edit]

Description This is a mosaic of the enrollment for taxes at the time of the birth of Jesus Christ, in Chora Church, later Kariye Mosque. The church was built around 1080, so the mosaics may have been from the same time. This is probably not something that I knew in advance. My guess is that it was a result of my "accidental" Turkish guide, a young man who attached himself to me during the day, and woulc not accept anything.
