Two fragments of - supposedly - a granite tombstone were found near the synagogue in Maribor.

The larger fragment is a rectangular piece of black granite, with parts of three rows of Hebrew epitaph:

[... ב]ני קורח לא נת[...]

[...]מירת: אין או[...]

[...] יוענים ושר[ים...]

The smaller fragment is an almost square of black granite, with first Hebrew words of two rows of epitaph:

עד

לפני

The two preserved fragments do not enable to reconstruct the epitaph.
