Description

Plate 22 from the Castle Garden collection

A complex mural of Anthropomorphic designs and tool-grooves. To the left appears the figure of a man, placed up-side-down and pierced by an arrowshaft. In this position, it no doubt represents death. Below this are very deep tool-grooves. The upper two Anthropomorphic figures show details of costumes. The figure to the left is wearing a sash, placed low upon the body. The right figure is wearing a fringed costume. Beside him is shown a bow and two arrowshafts. The lower central figure resembles a ladder or may be a symbolic design.
