Excerpt from The Thousand and One Churches

The attempt is made to arrange the inscriptions on the churches in chronological order: but this can be done only in a rough and approximate way. The principle of order lies in the growing degeneracy of education and spelling, which I assume to have been in tensified in the post - Arab time. By long study on one site one acquires a certain feeling for the sequence of history there and I have followed this acquired instinct. The epigraphic copies which are given do not always reproduce faithfully the rudeness of the letters: one's hand unconsciously makes the forms and the alignment too regular. The first epigraphic copies which I pre pared for reproduction were accidentally left in Konia with our camp equipment in July, 1909 (see p. And new copies had to be made with less advantages.
