“This is an inscription in Armenian letters on the column of the left nave towards the choir. It consists of thirteen characters, forming three words in two lines…
The first line contains one word – ‘Sarkis’… The second line contains two words: ‘tsara’, which means ‘servant’, and ’Astso’, which means ‘God’s.’
