Dialface ID 1
Abstract
The top and the sides of this sundial's spherical dial face are broken off. The base is decorated with a high relief of a boat and a man's head in the middle. On the Eastern and Western plane of the corpus two antae emerge from the upper part of the sundial, with a cornice in the upper third. A decorative tripartite element with a convex middle part protrudes from below the dial face.
