Old Testament scenes of Noah and the Arc, David Dancing before the arc and Daniel in the lion's den. On the lower left an ethiopian priest dances before a processional cross and two ritual drums. He carries a prayer stick and a sistrum, a rattle that relates to those used in the Egyptian worship of Isis.
