There are two different versions of the Man in the Maze history...Man is at the top of the plaque/basket and goes through the maze which is his journey through life to end in the center which is a crossover to a new life/ The other version is that you start you life in the center of the plaque and work your way through the maze or the journey to the top of the basket where the figure at the top is their God Iota who lives at the top of Kitt Peak.
