- Border
- A two-line border of varying widths follows the circumference of this stone. The tablet section has a three-line, two-border frame. There are illustrated panels on three sides of the tablet section. The flower in each upper corner is trailed by a stem with leaves down the side panels and halfway across the bottom panel. The point were they join on the bottom is marked by a two-layer circle.
- Remark
- The tympanum has two design elements. The head shape is organic and is neither round nor oval. It appears more like a head that has been squished from above and below. The eye sockets are circles and the nasal cavity is triangular, while the mouth and teeth are straight lines. The wings emanate from around the face and have two main layers.
