medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I don't think the shield is specifically important, as all the panels have a
shield at this situation and of the twelve only one other is possibly
heraldic (the one with the large A); the remainder are Instruments of the Passion,
or those odd ill-formed letters which were discussed on this list a month or
so back.
I'm interested in the tonsure idea; at first I thought it might be a crown
or coronet, but this seems more likely. Overall, I think that this panel
will go on the list of Mysteries at St Levan...
