Tholos, Greece: Monastery of the Koimesis Skripou We saw a church built in 847 AD using ancient pillars and stones. The circular stones come from slices of ancient pillars. Under the church (and shown through a glassed-in cut in the floor) is the tiling from a yet older building, and a well for holy water from the older building. Outside there were buildings with cells for the monks, and paintings.
