I'm really not sure if these labels had the function of indicating the orientation of this detail. One might also wonder then why the T-O diagram is not placed as intended in relation to the rosette itself.
And I wondered. I wrote about this in my You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.. It (orientation of the text and details) may point out direction of movement through the diagram.
Quote:Yes. It is really a good example. I only don't understand, why only sixth seal is here. Maybe, you will reveal the rest in your further posts. For now, I don't see the same sequence of events of the Revelation in the Rosettes diagram.
For the spiral, I think a good case can be made that it would have been seen as a scroll being rolled up, as in the text of Revelation. They were familiar with this concept, for example on banderoles (scrolls as speech bubbles). We included some examples in the post.
