The crowd sourced encyclopedia's article on the altar, read directly for this entry. Its strength is a well referenced construction, panel and dimension record. Its limit is that it is not independently peer reviewed, so it is cited here for corroborated construction and panel detail rather than for the contested scholarly identification of individual figures, which the Rehak article supplies instead.
