Modern Description: On the edge of Zipári is a second basilica, referred to as ‘Kapamás' from the name of the area where it is found. (In the centre of the village, a road south (left) leads to the cemetery and turns sharp right past a football pitch: the ruins are in front and below.) The three-aisled plan of the church is clear, with a well-preserved, 5th century baptistery standing to the southeast.
In the centre of the circular interior is a cruciform font, with two smaller ones in the two corners of the west side.
Two kilometres west from Zipári, the main island road splits into two carriageways for a short distance, so as to accommodate the ruined arches of a Roman aqueduct in the space in between.
