- A two line order begins at the top of the stone and proceeds down the tympanum. Once it passes the arch it redirects inward and morphs into a plant with leaves and the homunculus imagery. The images are bi-radial and helps frame the top of the tablet. The tablet section is built around the 2 pillars and arch that support the gabled tablet. The homunculus image repeats on top of the pillars in the tablet section.
