Stele fragment
The basalt stele shows two figures on the sides of a table. The male figure on the left is carrying a bow on his shoulder and holding a bird in his extended left hand. The female figure on the right is seated and holding a mirror or a spindle in her hand. Due to erosion the details of the figures are not visible. It was found used as building material in the minaret of a mosque in the city of Maraş. The fragment is about 84 cm high and 79 cm wide. A date around 950-850 BCE has been suggested. Currently in the inventory of the Adana Museum.
