These are his footprints on the Mount of Olives enclosed by the Church of the Ascension (Figure 1), the imprints of his face and hands on the Column of the Flagellation inside the Church on Mount Sion (Figure 2), and his empty tomb in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher (Figure 3). The fourth ground-plan illustrates the Church at Jacob’s Well in Nablus (Figure 4), assimilated to the form of the Cross.... The illustrations in Adomnán’s book are the first surviving drawings of the Christian pilgrimage churches in the Holy Land."
