These are available to download as PDF files, viewable with Adobe Reader. To download, right-click (Mac: option-click) and select "Save as…". (Note: These are large files, ranging from 9 MB to 201 MB.)

Each PDF contains:

  • Dimensions, description, inscription text, evidence of discovery, information on condition.
  • A 3D, rotatable model. (Click the green image to activate. If a security warning appears, click "Options" in the yellow bar and "Trust this document". These models require intensive processing, and may be slow or stall completely on older and slower computers.)
  • High-quality colour images showing different aspects of the stone.
