The older Roman churches often have an arcaded front porch; and in them we often find a collection of inscriptions. S. Giorgio is typical in this respect. There are more inscriptions inside the church, but they are of a later period.
Above: those to the left of the front door; below, those to the right.

These inscriptions can hardly be missed: you have to walk by them to enter S. Giorgio. Yet the church's most interesting inscription, very likely, is one that few people see, although it's larger than they are, and in plain sight!
Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.) |
