Stone Condition:

only a middle fragment of this stone survives, in poor condition; sometime before two years had passed since its recovery, the stone cracked into two pieces

Conservation:

The stone was one of many found at undocumented locations around Rohatyn and recovered under the direction of Mykhailo Vorobets and moved to the new Jewish cemetery in 2011. Mr. Vorobets later arranged to have the stone moved to the old Jewish cemetery in spring 2015.
