VOTIVE OF STILT-WALKERS | circa 1966-71 | Photo by Ann Cady, 2024 | ©2026 Norman Daly Art: The photo displays a marble fragment, with each of three distinct carvings presenting symbolic figures over grid-like patterns. The reliefs appear weathered and fragmented, suggesting significant archaeological interest, possibly originating from skilled stone-carvers of Llhuros. The carvings include identifiable icons that could represent cultural or religious symbols, emphasizing their likely role in rituals or as markers of social or spiritual practices such as the rite of stilt-walking.The fragment suggests that it might have once been part of a larger wall.
