The Knights flagstone

This stone is mysterious.
It can be seen in a book : Les pierres gravées du Languedoc(The engraved stones in Languedoc) published in1884 under the name of Eugène Stublein (born in 1832 in Alet and dead in 1899 in Les Sauzils).

It was princes Sigebert 4,Sigebert 5 and Bera 3 ‘s tombstone.It was built in 771.On the reproduction,it looks better preserved than it really is.On it is drawn Sigebert 4’s arrival when he was saved by his uncle Levis Bellisen on January 17^th 681.In the book, there is also a drawing of the inscription engraved on Marchionness Hautpoul’s tombstone.

The problem is :if one looks at Stublein’s bibliography,one’ll find out he never published that book.

Inside the Church

On the ground of the church is drawn a chessboard of 64 squares oriented towards the four cardinal points.At the entrance of the church is a devil who is holding the stoup :He is Asmodeus,the limping devil who guards King Solomon's temple. The statues of angels are on a pedestal on which are carved 2 griffons,treasure keepers. They could also be 2 salamanders, Angouleme Counts symbol. Above him is written BS ; and higher are the statues of four angels.Under the angels one can read the sentence Emperor Constantin had seen in the sky :Par ce signe tu le vaincras :With this sign, you will vanquish him.(Of course this is about the sign of the cross.) But the sentence Constentin saw was just : Par ce signe,tu vaincras. With this sign, you will vanquish :

Those 2 letters added to the original words raised many questions and many answers : Adding 2 letters makes the total of the letters 22.And we know that the crane on the cemetary gate has 22 teeth ; and also that Magdala tower has 22 crenels.

The L and E are the thirteenth and fourteenth letters,now the last of the Templar Knights Jacques de Molay was burnt in 1314 .

The L is the twelveth letter of the alphabet and the e is the fifth.12+5=17. The tarot card 17 is l'etoile (the star) like the star on the top of the church.

Mary Magdalene has been painted under the altar by father Saunière and father Courtauly.There was an inscription which has ben erased by a vandal.It was :
JESU MEDELA VULNERUM SPES UNA POENITENTIUM PER MAGDALENAE LACRYMAS PECCATA NOSTRA DILUAS
"Jesus,you remedy against our pains and only hope for our repentance,it is thanks to Magdalene's tears that you wash our sins away." 

We know that Saunière as a priest had studied latin,but it seems there are some mistakes in this inscription,both in grammar and spelling(pOEnitientum should be PAEnitientum).This looks like a word to word translation.It would have been more correct like that  :
JESU VULNERUM MEDELA, PAENITENTIUM UNA SPES MAGDALENAE LACRYMAS PECCATA NOSTRA DILUAS

Pontius Pilate and his throne are just like King Solomon in Poussin's picture,according to the description given in the bible.
