1 The date is based on references by Jerome and Egeria, not on firm archaeological data. If correct, it precedes by a century all other tri-apsidal churches in the Holy Land (Michel [pp. 155, 165] comments on this anomaly). A chapel found recently (at the end of 2020) in the olive groves of Gethsemane, to the west of the Church of Agony, but its details as yet unpublished, may shed new light on the chronology if it becomes clear that Jerome and Egeria were actually referring to this chapel, rather than to the tri-apsidal basilica.
