The student cataloger's name can be found in the dc.contributor.advisor field.Four flat stone blocks with a flat top band base but an hourglass shaped midsection. The four stones come together to make a flat surface likely only one to two feet off the ground, and there is a sperate, large stone slab perpendicular and against the wall to create a back for this chair. The entire structure is built into a stone wall, and the shadows over the area as well as the sunken surroundings suggest that this area is below ground. Although this photograph was taken from the side, Horns of Consecration seem to decorate the top of the seating area, possibly suggesting that this was a throne. The flat-topped stones are in the shape of Minoan altars

Poto-Poto School Painting
No full textReverend William Pruitt (1911-1999), who served as a Presbyterian missionary in the Belgian Congo from the 1930s to 1978, collected a group of 37 paintings from artists at the Poto-Poto School, a small art school in Brazzaville, Republic of the Congo that is still in operation today. In 1998, the Presbyterian Church U.S.A. began an investigation into allegations of sexual abuse made by several children of missionaries from the time Pruitt was a missionary in the Congo. This collection of paintings was found in the Rhodes College collection in the summer of 2023. The paintings were digitized and cataloged in the Visual Resources Center during fall 2023.
