- Surveyed On
- September 1, 2015
- Stone Type
- slate
- Tympanum
- skull
- Border
- Originally there was a two line, thin width border around the circumference of this stone. There are side panels to the left and right of the tablet section. At the top of these columns, right at the stone's shoulders, are circles with a six-sided star inside. Under the circle, the illustrations are nautilus-like swirls with complimentary accents of undulating shapes.
- Remark
- This stone was damaged either prior or during its installation into the granite frame. The tympanum features a large skull from earlier periods. The simple bi-hemispherical shape, triangular nasal cavity and heart-shaped mouth support this contention. The background consists of rows of segmented tiles which seem to irradiate from behind the skull.
- Physical Status
- straight less_than_20_degrees
- Intelligibility
- readable, broken images or writing
