| Notes on support and decorations | Limestone stepped architectural element inscribed on the lower, internal step. The upper step is projecting in two lateral squared elements: on the left one a squared mortise is visible, while the right one shows the remains of a tenon inside it. Evidently this piece was embedded in another element. The pinkish stone is well finished and polished. This piece is comparable with UAM 30, where the inscription is carved on the long external side. |
