DESCRIPTION Many fragments that make up to a profile of the only excavated column base, not mended. The shape is round with a slightly concave profile. Sandy wackestone, brownish with parts burned gray and red. The upper part of the shaft and an area about 2 cm wide around the circumference of the top are finished with a fine, single-pointed tool, the marks of the shaft being mostly horizontal but also crisscross in patches. The remainder of the top and shaft has coarse toolmarks while the underside of the base is roughly finished with highly prominent marks. |

DESCRIPTION Stepped slab or base. Very fragmentary. There is a shallow recess in its uppermost surface. The element is cut from a highly distinctive, light-colored coarse sandstone which appears speckled. Almost half the slab/base has been recovered. Three larger fragments have been assembled from joining fragments. The flat border or margin around the tops and the treads of the steps are smoothed with few visible traces of tool marks, the risers less well finished. The surface of the large recess on the top bears shallow tool marks, confirming that it was not intended to be visible. The side below the bottom step (i.e., the lowest riser) and the underside bear coarse tool marks made with an adze or chisel. Some surfaces have a reddish tinge which, like parts of the statue surface, seems to be the result of post-destruction staining. |
|
DIMENSIONS Thickness of slab: 20.5 cm. Height of steps: top riser 1.5 cm, middle riser 3 cm, lowest riser 3.5 cm. Width of margin around the recess: 7.0 cm. Width of first step from top: 3.5 cm. Width of second step from top: 3.0 cm. Width of lowest step (not illustrated in full): 3.5 cm. The side below the bottom step (not illustrated although several fragments are extant) 12.5 cm. Depth of cut recess on top: 0.9 cm. |

In 2008 this bolster was put on display in Yozgat Museum. This means that it may never be possible to check and see if it is part of the bolster block. |

DESCRIPTION Sandstone block wıth graffiti of semi-iconic idols and Old Phrygian letters. Complete in two pieces This upper block was found broken into two parts. The breakage must have occurred in antiquity, but after the graffiti were incised because the lines continue either side of the break. This stone is roughly rectangular but with one slanting side, which is the glacis face. The stone was a corner block facing southwest towards the passage and southeast on the glacis face. It was only the side facing the passage that had incised figures. This surface is finely smoothed. |

DESCRIPTION Sandstone block with graffiti. Complete, much of surface missing This lower block is roughly triangular in shape with six faces. The face in the entrance passage measures 56 cm, the side in the glacis face is 34 cm wide, while the opposite end hidden inside the walling is 36 cm wide. The height is 40 cm. The two exposed faces carry graffiti. On the passage side the surface is preserved in two areas, at the left side and at the lower right corner, the latter measuring 22 cm in height and 30 cm in length. |

DESCRIPTION Clamp cuttings 6-8. Complete but broken block fallen from the northeast corner of the South Platform. There is a perpendicular cutting, number 6, in one end of the block, at left in the photograph, positioned closer to the front of the block than the back. The much larger cutting, number 7, found with some of the carbonized wooden clamp in place, is diagonal to the long axis of the block, its end approximately in the center of the rear edge. A third cutting, number 8 at right, was for a timber tying the block back into the rubble core of the platform. |

DESCRIPTION Part of a block in three joining pieces with two clamp cuttings in the preserved surface. The large, incomplete cutting, with steeply splayed end, is perpendicular to the axis of the block and presumably, therefore, to tie the face block back into the core of the South Platform. The corner of a small clamp cutting in the end of the block, at top left in the photograph, would have tied this block to its neighbor in the wall face of the South Platform. |

DESCRIPTION Large block in 10 fragments, incomplete, not mended. Pale brown sandy wackestone with white carbonate accretion. This is the only architectural block that has clamp cuttings on different surfaces. It is likely that the block cracked during construction with the result that the block was reoriented. Only the smaller, more complete, cutting is illustrated. |
