Default "Christ the magician" bowl discovered

I didn't see this posted anywhere so here goes;

Archaeologists have discovered a bowl in an underwater excavation off Alexandria dating to between the late 2nd century B.C. and the early 1st century A.D.

Quote:
The full engraving on the bowl reads, "DIA CHRSTOU O GOISTAIS," which has been interpreted by the excavation team to mean either, "by Christ the magician" or, "the magician by Christ."

The original thread on this subject is here.

I'm going to lock this one as redundant.
