Aksaray Stele

[1] Hawkins published the stele in his Corpus of Hieroglyphic Luwian Inscriptions in 2000.

The obverse shows the lower part of a figure to about the waist, probably a weather god.

He describes the prosperity in his reign and the benevolence of the weather god Tarhunzas.

Kiyakiyas is believed to be identical with King Kiyakki of Šinuḫtu, who ruled prior to 718 BC.

At that time, he was seized and deported by the Neo-Assyrian king Sargon II.
