The strange inscription: On the left of the entrance portal of the church, at eye level, we can see Greek characters, † ɱ⧩h⧩Ʌ⧩, present on two other monuments of the city, the Baptistery of San Giovanni and the Church of SS. Cosma and Damiano. The remains of the latter are kept in the museum of San Matteo. Many scholars have tried to unravel its meaning, formulating numerous hypotheses: ɱisteryum hoc Ʌrcano, ɱisteryum hoc Ʌugustum, ɱalum hic Ʌverte, o Ʌrceat. Mysteries, months or warnings. Further reading identified the word ɱichaeɅ, where ɱ is equivalent to mu, h is equivalent to eta and Ʌ to lambda, thus obtaining an invocation, Latinised from the Greek, to Archangel Michael, connecting our church to the Leyline of St. Michael, the sacred line of St. Michael, which connects some religious buildings from Ireland to Greece. Finally, the reading from right to left and the vocalisation of the three triangles, like in the Semitic languages, gives us the word eLoHiM, biblical term with a meaning of divinity, coming from Elohah, the only God of Israel.
