    abstract = "Eight bread stamps have been unearthed at Delphi during excavations carried out
by the French School of Athens. They all date to the 6th and 7th centuries. On their
main faces it is possible to note Christian symbols, birds, portraits of saints and a
scene from the life of Jesus. Their study raises a series of questions about the choice
of the scenes and figures represented, including the use of stamps for the eucharistic
or the eulogia bread and the relation of the stamps example sanctuaries in Delphi.
Standing out among this group of stamps, is the only known example in bibliography
related to Catechumens."
