Not only have times significantly changed but, in the great Ford outdoors, a stela from a Theosophical Society pilgrimage played a century ago could easily be imagined buried on the hillside.

There, a battered stone stela excavated in 1989 bears a Long Count date fragment that may refer to an unknown event around 300 B.C.E.

As in the Pantheon, the domed roof was a waffle pattern of recessed square panels, but here each panel was a stela—a grave marker with Ancient Greek inscriptions.

Among the crosses were a dozen stone slabs, resembling stela.

And looking higher still I saw an orange stela, memorializing the Nagorno-Karabakh residents who had died in World War II.
