Ha! I was wrong on both accounts. Suppose that's what I get for using the first picture I see.

Perseus doesn't list anything for Akeptous. I'm at a loss there.

The fishes symbol is clearly Pisces, the astrological sign. Others in the Bible appear up there - Virgo, and Aquarius (John the Baptist).

Default Remains of the oldest Christian church discovered

You don't have to be a Christian to appreciate the value of this find. They need to hurry up and date it so we can see exactly how old these ruins are. This could possibly be the first Christian church in history. An inscription in ancient Greek reads that the site is dedicated to "the Lord Jesus Christos".
