Which is what it is, a special kind of mountain.These folios are clearly about water flow, but starting from where? It could be mountains and volcanoes, but I have a problem with the rows of inverted hills/knobs in the "pine-cone" pattern, and the surrounding cloud-bands.

The undulating cloud-band pattern is as standard as can be, it always symbolizes the (element) air, then what air separates from, above, is clear enough in my opinion: clouds (the "pine-cone") and rain (the "umbrella") .
Rain-clouds do not usually look like regular rows of inverted hills/knobs, only mamatocumulus do but you have to allow for symbols not depicting exactly what they represent. The "pine-cone" pattern is similar to naive drawings of waves on the sea, albeit inverted.
Rain falls in all directions around you (hence the radial "umbrella" pattern) when you look at the zenith. The folios describe water flow, starting from rain-clouds in my opinion.

Place the You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. in a central rosette.
Look up. Then - to the left. Such a coincidence is not accidental. Different tips of umbrellas are used for orientation.
It becomes clear why cans with elixirs are drawn in the central rosette (in the drive).
Q13a is a consequence of (explanation) ROS.
