Architecture may give fairly obvious ideas but this Celtic image seems to cause a difficulty. It’s from Arcobriga in Spain.

He has a problem with it:

The Romanization of Central Spain: Complexity, Diversity and Change …
Leonard Curchin - 2004 - ‎History
."… A painted vase from Arcobriga, of difficult interpretation, shows a ‘tree-man’ …"

So maybe there are insights or information from Catholic sources . To start , there is a curve between the 2 pillars. Roman Mithra had a standardised scheme in sculpture.

Maybe that curve is also here.

I’m just fishing for any ideas , being retired and amateur.
