Inscribed Block

The block with a 4-line Hieroglyphic Luwian inscription (MARAŞ 10) on one of its sides was entered into the Adana Museum registry around 1935-1936 with a provenance from Maraş, but there is not further detail available. It is 0.67 meter high, 0.52 meter deep and the inscribed narrow side is 0.30 meter wide. The names of deities Kubaba and Karhuha are readable in the first two lines of the inscription.
