It was a library-in-progress for the Russian Orthodox monks of St. Anthony.

	The monk appears from the church. The little lizards have rung the alarm, alerting somewhat smaller but more intelligent demons who are under complete control, having entered a program of religious instruction, and only do good works these days, such as counting cars that go by (none) or jets that go by (lots) or flies that go by (won't tell you here, but the number looks a bit like Pi). These demons aren't allowed to talk directly the monk (though he does look kindly on them), but they manage to get messages to him, and so, somehow or other, he knows to get up from prayer and go out to talk to Jacob.

39:23

The Monastery:

A very short time after Jacob is abandoned by the dancing letters, he arrives at a half-finished adobe monastery hidden in the desert scrub. There, between the open roofed walls of library still under construction, Jacob talks to an Orthodox monk who advises him that there are bees many miles down range, hived within the monument marker at Trinity Site, where the Army lit the first plutonium bomb.
