When you don't have enough shingles on one side, so you bring the ones from the otherside to help cover.  Oh wait, that's a "roof comb over"

When a roof is having a crappy shingle day, it waits til it rains a bit to get things a little wet, then uses a roof comb to make it's appearance look a bit better

Roof comb (or roof-comb) is the structure that tops a pyramid in monumental Mesoamerican architecture. Examination of the dections and iconography of Maya civilization roof-combs indicates that each icon had specific sacred meanings.
