Stele fragment
On the left side of the basalt stele fragment is partially visible the feet and hem of the dress of a person holding an instrument. In front of him is a table with food and a duck on it. On the right side is a smaller male figure holding a cup and a palm leaf. Below this scene is a horse led by a spear-carrying male figure. The stele was reportedly found in a secondary context in a house in the city of Maraş. In 1883 it was acquired by Rev. Henry Marden of the American mission in Maraş, and in 1891 it was given to the New York Metropolitan Museum. Its dimensions are approximately 0.9 meters by 0.44 meter, and it is roughly dated to the 9th century BCE. Currently on display in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
