Comments: 
[13] The seal is unusual in that it is inscribed in both Latin and Greek, perhaps to stress the legitimate inheritance of the Latin patriarchs from their Greek predecessors. As transcribed in the late 17th century, it reads: S. Euremarus Patriarcha Hierusalem. Ό ΆΓΙΟΣ ΤΑΦΟΣ ΤΟΥ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ ΙΗΣΟΥ ΧΡ[ΙΣΤΟΥ].
