Likely dating to the Early Christian period (7th–10th century AD), this cross-slab may have served as a grave marker or memorial. The inscription "GOIR" or "GOIT" may be a personal name or abbreviation, while the interlace suggests a connection to monastic or ecclesiastical traditions in the region.
