Significant edits and additions have now been performed, with photographs and references. Respectfully suggest that "class' is no longer a "stub" and that importance is raised to "high" in view of the following significant facts:
a) The double apse is unique in the era of Byzantine construction and especially since the construction post-dates the East-West Schism
b) The foundation walls preserve in great detail and completeness a temple structure dating from circa 300 BC
c) The "bull" and two "dragon" stones most probably depict the slaying of Laocoon and his two sons during the Trojan Horse finale of the Siege of Troy
d) The site provides significant evidence that survivors from the fall of Troy settled in the area and that their decendants founded both the temple site of Mesopotam and Butrint
I propose to elevate the status accordingly, on the date of 1st June 2018, unless arguments to the contrary are presented here.

I would be grateful for assistance or advice how to remove the annoying "grey area" from the photographs I contributed. The "grey area" is not present in the files I uploaded.
