The Siq, Petra
Both iconic and aniconic depictions of gods are well-represented at Petra, although many figural representations were destroyed by later iconoclasts. The destroyed carving here must be one such. A square tenon, to which an anthropomorphic figure would once have been attached, can still be seen above the horned altar.
