The first one is the front of the epistyle and it has a motif of interlocking circles with palmettes. The second one is the soffit of the epistyle which most likely belongs to the diakonikon entrance and is decorated with a lozenge and palmette scrolls. The motifs of the rubbings are described on plate 24 of the monograph, Weir Schultz, Robert & Barnsley, Sidney H. 1901.
