Description
Iberian stele possibly of a funerary nature found by staff of the Museum of Palafrugell in some outbuildings at the Shrine of St. Sebastian de la Guarda. It is a fragment of what would be the original piece in a parallelepiped shape. The decoration is the typical sequence of overlapping spears and decorative elements that frame the whole. In the upper sequence ten spears are between horizontal lines. In the bottom row the points of eight spears are preserved partially.
