Relief of Goddess Kubaba
The basalt relief fragment is about 82 cm in height and dates to around 850-750 BCE. It is in the Anatolian Civilizations Museum, Ankara. It is probably a relief of the Goddess Kubaba. She is holding a pomegranate in her right hand, and in her missing left hand, most likely a mirror. In this relief, a horn can be seen in front of the polos (headpiece) which is a common sign of divinity. A single line inscription is partially preserved above the head. The relief originally stood on the Long Wall. The missing lower part has been reconstructed based on similar reliefs.
