dc.description | Description: In 2005, two conical altars later recut as mortars were seen, one at the mosque and one at a village house, but it was not possible to find either again on a subsequent visit in 2008. The first altar, decorated with a cross, is carved in gray marble streaked with white; the reverse conical body sits on a plain round base, and the cross, with slightly flaring termini, projects from a smoothed surface toward the top. The other altar is undecorated but of a similar shape. | en_US |
