Kenrick (2013) sees the architectural complex, including a circular bastion near the sea and a series of rooms built in Byzantine times, as a single entity (the "West Gate"), while in Christian Monuments (2003) they are considered two separate ones (the "West Gate" and the "Byzantine Rooms"). Stucchi (1975) only refers to the Southern structure (the "Byzantine Rooms", that he calls "Martyrium Biabsidato"), with no mention of the bastion.
