- Border
- The stone has several different border motifs at play. The tympanum upper border is a series of scalloped semi-circles. This border just covers the edge of the tympanum and the two shoulders. The tablet portion of the stone is dominated by two types of borders; a simple two line border that proceeds down the stone's sides. The tablet is suspended between two etched stone columns which looks more eurasian/Egyptian than the more traditional styles. They are thick and include several components and details.
