Cross of the Scriptures (Clonmacnoise)

Tombstone at the monastic site of Clonmacnoise dating from the 9th-10th century CE. Before the inscription was carved, this was probably a quern-stone. The inscription recalls SECHNASACH or Sech Nasach, a priest who died in the early 10th century CE. The decoration includes Greek key patterns, a thin cross and what could be braid-work.
