- Surveyed On
- September 17, 2015
- Stone Type
- slate
- Tympanum
- face (alone), face (female)
- Border
- There is a single wide width two line border over the dome of the tympanum. It is blank. At the shoulders, it decreases in width to half its side and down the sides. Another companion border begins at the shoulders and then goes down the sides.
- Remark
- The tympanum is dominated by the head. It is looks about one generation from a circle. The hair is a wild combination of line styles but they are presented in mirror image. There is a definite smile on the face and the nose is etched in proportion. The head sits on a neck and indistinct shoulders. There are also designs on either side of the tympanum that could be like curtains heralding the concept of the tympanum as a stage (like life).
