Gozan Pedestal inscription

The Gozan Pedestal inscription,[1] also known as the Tell Halaf inscription, was an ancient Aramaic description discovered in Tell Halaf in 1933, and published in 1940.

The inscription was on a limestone stele.

It was destroyed in November 1943 during the Battle of Berlin, when a phosphorus bomb destroyed the Tell Halaf Museum.
