A fact from Maon Synagogue appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 19 May 2010 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that the mosaic floor of the Maon Synagogue shows the steps in ancient wine making?

According to
Salman Abu Sitta's, "Mapping my return", this was a well-known Byzantine church, before 1948. He visited in the 1990s, and found the stones for the
menorah-area were different from the rest of the mosaic; they were just superficially coloured.
Given the synagogue was only rediscovered in 1957 when a road was being dug up, I think he may be confusing it with another site. The Hebrew article mentions there is a former Byzantine church close by (near
Kissufim) with a mosaic from the same period, plus another church in nearby Shallal (which is referenced in this article) which had been discovered in 1917 (and so would have been known before 1948).
