| Notes on support and decorations | The legs of the human figure are not represented, therefore it is not sure that he wears a short tunic. The circular object that he holds in the left hand could be a shield. A long object (a sword?) hangs from the waist. Vertical parallel lines seems to frame the upper edge of the stela. Low relief. |
