Weft: wool Z-2, 60-64/in and Silk, Z-2 or z-3, 68-74/in Iconography: The likely cast of characters is follows: Moses with halo in center, slightly to rear, presiding over the foreground event, the "horns" of the Old Testament text refer actually to rays / beams of light. The goat-like protuberances of later art are really a literal and incorrect reading of the text.
