Hogarth say that “it yields to no rock-relief in the world in impressive character” (_American Journal of Archaeology_, vi. (1890) p. 347). Professor Garstang would date the sculptures in the tenth or ninth century B.C. Another inscribed Hittite monument found at Bor, near the site of the ancient Tyana, exhibits a very similar figure of a priest or king in an attitude of adoration. The resemblance extends even to the patterns embroidered on the robe and shawl, which include the well-known _swastika_ carved on the lower border of the long robe. The figure is sculptured in high relief on a slab of stone and would seem to have been surrounded by inscriptions, though a portion of them has perished. See J. Garstang, _op. cit._ pp. 185-188, with plate lvi. For the route from Tarsus to Ibreez (Ivriz) see E. J. Davis, _Life in Asiatic Turkey_, pp. 198-244; J.

When Cicero was proconsul of Cilicia (51-50 B.C.) he encamped with his army for some days at Cybistra, from which two of his letters to Atticus are dated. But hearing that the Parthians, who had invaded Syria, were threatening Cilicia, he hurried by forced marches through the pass of the Cilician Gates to Tarsus. See Cicero, _Ad Atticum_, v. 18, 19, 20; _Ad Familiares_, xv. 2, 4. 391 E. J. Davis, in _Transactions of the Society of Biblical Archaeology_, iv.
