More model informationThis slab was used as a paving slab outside St Columba’s Shrine. It bears a ringed cross with rounded sunken angles and a decorated base, probably inspired by St John’s Cross at Iona.
The inscription reads ‘A prayer for Loingsechán’, who was probably an abbot.
A number of early Christian cross-incised stones have been found on Iona. They were probably grave-markers, or possibly boundary-markers, with those decorated on both sides standing upright, and the rest being recumbent.
