Bgawat was originally a site of exile. As an example, the 5th century bishop Nestorius was exiled to Bagawat for having claimed that only one of Jesus' natures had suffered on the cross; the earthly nature, not the divine. This remains the main difference between Coptic Christians and other Eastern Orthodox faiths. The ceilings which can not be photographed, contain murals of Old Testament events such as Daniel and the Lions and Noah's Ark.
