Comments on the state of preservation and visible restoration:

Contamination by biological growth (algae and lichen colonies) is evident on the lateral and upper edges of the stele. The microbial growth on the front and back surfaces is much less which may be due to microfoliation and delamination of the sandstone layers. All elements of the stone band are covered by intensive algal growth and lichen colonies. This is caused by capillary rise of ground water, minerals and organic material from the soil filling the space surrounded by the band. Soiling of the stone surface caused by air pollution (exhaust fumes) can be seen as a dark deposit on the front and back surfaces of the stele. The uneven distribution of this type of tarnish may be due to the varying hardness of the sandstone within the stele.
