History
Normally I would say flagstone or slab but...on the ceiling? There must be a better word.
From a work on architectural monuments of Byzantium.
В расположенном восточнее мавзолее султана Сулеймана (Sultan Süleyman Türbesi) две плиты на потолке при входе (10) представляют собой повернутые изнанкой тексты религиозных декретов Мануила Комнина, слепки с которых мы видели в Св. Софии.

ceiling slabs
Why not slabs?
The ceiling was made of single slabs carved with decorations of the trinity of gods worshipped here: Baal, Yarhibol, and Agribal.
