Abstract

The aim of this study is to make a comprehensive evaluation of the funerary stele found in Kekliktepe Necropolis, which bears similarities with the examples from Zeugma. The Kekliktepe Necropolis is located in the Keklik Neighborhood, Nizip District, Gaziantep Province, on 164 block and 1-2 parcels. It is also very close to the Western Necropolis of the Ancient City of Zeugma and is located approximately 600 meters to the west. By analyzing the iconographic and stylistic features of the stele, this research aims to provide insight into its historical context and cultural significance. The stele’s architectural structure, figurative composition and Greek inscription will be analyzed through a comparative analysis with similar examples from Zeugma and the surrounding area. This approach will help to determine the artistic characteristics and possible function of the stele. Among the conclusions of the study is that the funerary stele from Kekliktepe Necropolis shares a common artistic tradition and production style with the Zeugma stelae dating to the first half of the 2nd century AD. In addition, the figures and inscriptions on the stele provide valuable clues to the identity, social status and belief systems of the deceased.
