Coptic Study Library XIV. The White Convent, founded in 440, was a place of worship and meeting for Coptic monks around the second half of the 5th century. The collection presents all the niches and friezes of this fortress, a remarkable collection because it was not dispersed as was the case for other Coptic churches.
