Slab stela
The slab stela was an original form of the steles of ancient Egypt. However, it was horizontal in dimension. Some of the earliest tablets from mid- to late-3rd millennium BC were painted Slab Steles. A small list of Ancient Egyptian dignitaries or their wives had a slab stela.
Some funerary stelas were in the form of slab steles, as opposed to being of the more common vertical type.
Lintel
At the same time period of the middle 3rd millennium BC and later, some famous horizontal lintels were made. Hemon-(Hemiunu), the noted architect had one. It is housed in the Pelizaeus Museum of Germany. The horizontal lintel was used in other cultures in ancient times, for example in the Mesopotamian cultures.
gollark: The Vega 56 is somewhat lower-end than the 64, and the Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti is I think comparable to that (probably worth checking out benchmarks for the specific games you play), but turns out to be a lot cheaper in Australia.
gollark: I think the Radeon RX 5700 (NOT the much older 5700 series HD ones) is *fairly* perf-comparable to the Vega 64, and they seem to be similar prices in Australia.
gollark: I think the AMD Vega cards have been replaced by the Navi ones now, which got released on Sunday.

gollark: There are probably a bunch of different implementations in use, and possibly meta-repnets for weighting each repnet.
