Name: Samuel Howes jr.
Location: Dennis, MA
Date: 1798
Carver: Caleb Lamson II
A tiny sunburst at the center and what looks like 2 scrolls or rams horns curving above it.
No idea what this symbolizes.~
Oh and I think the sunburst is watching you. >>
EDIT FROM THE FUTURE: The Howes Cemetery was restored in 2018. I've replaced the original pic from '07 with this somewhat cleaner update from 2019.~

what's interesting is the item between the sunburst and the scrolls/horns
it seems too simple to be a symbol itself (but i wouldn't know)
though it's very similar to what's used in the skull faces elsewhere.
that considered, it appears as a face formed from a set of other symbols
idk
