What Wikipedia says

Monk and Nun, also known as pan and cover, mission tiling, Spanish tile, gutter tile, or barrel tile, is a style of arranging roof tiles, using semi-cylindrical tiles similar to imbrex and tegula, but instead of alternating rows of flat tiles (tegulae) and arched tiles (imbrices), both rows consist of the arched tile.
