- slate
- Tympanum
- face with ornamentation
- Border
- A thin two-line border encircles the entire stone. It varies in width from very thin along the top of the tympanum to thicker along the tympanum's base. Another two-line border surrounds the tablet section.
- Remark
- The tympanum includes four distinct elements. An oval face with details of eyebrows, a wide nose, and thin lips are accommodated. The hair is pulled back. The second element is the two-layer wings on either side. The third element would be the two plants to either side of the face. The final elements are abstract leaves distributed in a bi-radial pattern along the tympanum's outer edge. In the middle, the shape is pointed straight along the center line while on either side they are canted towards their sides.
