This is a black-and-white photo of carved stone shields on a tomb. The shields have symbols like lions, stars, and wavy lines. They’re arranged in a row on a flat surface, with a stone ledge in front. The photo was taken in the 1860s, showing how old tombs were documented. These shields were likely part of a bigger monument.
