Two unknown 15th-century inscriptions from Epirus
Abstract
This study presents two hitherto unknown 15th-century inscriptions from Epirus. The first one is found in the church of Taxiarches in Ouzdina (Pente Ekklisies) in the Thesprotia region and is dated within the period 1402-1411. The second one comes from the church of John the Baptist in Arachovitsa (Lefkothea) in the Ioannina region and is dated on 1489. Both of them contribute to our knowledge on 15th-century monuments in Epirus. In addition, we present three more inscriptions dated in the 16th and 17th centuries from the same churches that shed light on the construction phases of the aforementioned monuments.
