| The Midas MonumentThe most prominent part of the Midas Monument is a high rock-cut facade with an incised decoration apparently showing a pedimented temple front with acroteria faced with terra cotta and with a niche at the bottom center. The niche's walls bear graffiti reading MATAR (Mother i.e. the goddess Cybele) and it probably held a statue of Cybele. |
