Notes
Fragments of frescoes engraved with bas-relief interlacing and various structures. They were originally multi-coloured, although only traces of red and black remain today. Eight-branched stars dominate, taking different scales that lead to geometric structures and other innovative shapes that furnish the spaces. Each star was separated from its neighbor by a kind of pattern forming vertical and horizontal bands. The fragment registered under the number 50725 was obtained from one of the side panels of the large arch of the rectangular central hall, which was surrounded by two square halls. Part C, which contains two and a half stars, may be due to the horizontal frieze placed above the arch; While the other, part (a), with lattices decoration mixed with stylized foliage decorations, undoubtedly belongs to the base. As for the third part (b), which is decorated with a geometric pink star, it was obtained from the pillars.
