The area in front of the cave was also used before the church was built, as in the southeastern part of the church, remains of an earlier north/south wall cut into bedrock and having plaster on its eastern face were found. Associated with this wall is a thick plastered surface aligned with it, lying north of the apse, and apparently covering another cave which is at present unexcavated.
