Stone Type
limestone
Tympanum
face with ornamentation
Border
From the little we can clearly decipher, there is a thin, two line border around the circumference of this stone. There are illustrated panels to the left and right of the tablet section. The designs inside the panels seem to be floral
Remark
The erosion of the limestone has rendered this stone barely readable. The tympanum, which is difficult to read, seems to have several design elements. A large banner is inside of the outermost border. It probably has some words inscribed but erosion has made them disappear. There is another design below the banner and above the face, but it also has been rendered unreadable. The face shape is clear but the details are too eroded. Six- sided stars are place to the left and right of the face. The face appears to be framed
