Итог:Among the several miniatures concerning medieval Jerusalem, the image painted in ms. 9823-9824 of the Royal Library of Bruxelles, f. 157r (12th century) shows an often neglected detail of the crusader Citadel, wrongly connected with King David: three small circles immediately beneath the roof of the building are visible. In the past, they were seen as butts of reused ancient columns, according with a well-known castle-building technique, useful against earthquakes and sapping during sieges; but it can be also supposed that the circles are a symbol of another use, i.e. showing shields as items for military celebration, power display and exhibition of war-booty. The most authoritative model for this reading of the miniature is the hapax in Song of Songs 4:4, where shields on a "David's Tower" are mentioned.
