Fragment of a Frieze with a Sequence of Roundels Enclosing Rosettes 5th-6th century The monastic community of Bawit, founded in the 300s by Apa (Father) Apollo at a small village, grew to consist of numerous complexes with residences, chapels, and service structures and two large churches profusely decorated with sculptures and paintings, often reused from other sites, all affiliated with the Coptic church. The more important buildings were decorated with courses of sculpted stone freely combining floral and geometric motifs inspired by classical art - rosettes, acanthus leaves, meander patterns - with more recent Christian themes. These sculptural elements, demonstrating the Byzantine love of complex patterning with lush textures, were originally painted in rich, vibrant colors like those surviving in textiles..

Tile from a Frieze first half 13th century The broken character of the calligraphic decoration on this tile implies that it was once part of a frieze decoration. The Arabic inscription (lannahum ajma'ina) is probably from the fifteenth sura of the Qur'an, "The Rock" (15:92): "So by your Lord, we would most certainly question them all." The religious nature of the inscription suggests that the tile frieze was placed in a religious context, most likely surrounding the mihrab in a mosque.. Tile from a Frieze. first half 13th century.
