(March 26, 2025) This Punic runestone is numbered AO 1018 and is Med Text 90.
The image shows the star Sirius above the sky-shell which houses the life network. This indicates the text will talk about how the astrological powers are affecting the life network represented by the gods Hu (rain, sun) and Yahu (life manifestations). Sirius was the sun's companion star and thus it played an important part in integrating the astrological powers with the life powers.
