also illustrated in Almagro Gorbea 1973, fig. 46, 119; Estácio da Veiga 1887, Est. VII - but drawn with incompletely drawn 2nd from right register. (this is indeed correct what Veiga drew, get that image!), now broken in two, recent break (though old repair evident); Gonçalves 2005, fig. 15, 69, also in http://www.matriznet.dgpc.pt/MatrizNet/Objectos/ObjectosConsultar.aspx?IdReg=129293&EntSep=5#gotoPosition
