Dauwâr November 17, 1899

The ruins of this town are situated about
half an hour south of Kо̄kanâya in a little
valley. There is but a small group of buildings
mostly in complete ruins. The small church
and one or two private houses are the chief
points of interest.

Church. The church stands near the centre of the
town. It is the simplest rectangular
structure undivided by walls or arches.
Two repurposed rows of windows, small
and rectangular give character to the
north wall - The east wall is provided
with coupled windows divided by a
rectangular block with a pseudo Ionic engaged
colonnette carved on its outer face. After
the church was built it seems to have been
extended, in proper style, toward the west.
Two doorways opened toward the South
upon a cloister court with remains
of a good colonnade in the N.W. and S. sides.
