Peter and Andrew.<\/p>\n<p>Among the discoveries made at this basilica is a mosaic, uncovered in 2022, with the inscription \u201cChief of the apostles and keeper of the keys of heaven, intercede for him and his children George and Theophano.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Last year, the site also endured a wildfire, the results of which Notley said have subsequently allowed the team to uncover evidence of columns and other structures previously overlooked due to dense underbrush.<\/p>\n<p>Notley told EWTN News that the archaeological team was able to identify a structure underneath the apse of the basilica by identifying pottery they discovered there as first-century pottery. The team also found first-century fishing weights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, we have a first-century house wall under the apse. It doesn\u02bct have a plaque on it that says \u2018Peter slept here,\u2019 but from a perspective of archaeology, it doesn\u02bct get much better than that,\u201d Notley said.<\/p>\n<p>Notley said he welcomes volunteers to participate in the ongoing dig, which he said is entirely privately funded.
