Abdmiskar cippus


The Abdmiskar cippus is a white marble cippus in obelisk form discovered in Sidon, Lebanon, dated to 300 BCE. Discovered in 1890 by Joseph-Ange Durighello.
It contains a two line Phoenician inscription, stating that it represents an "offering made by Abdmiskar, son of Baalsillekh, to his lord Salman." It measures 105cm x 30cm x 30cm. It has been compared to the obelisks in the Temple of the Obelisks in Byblos.
Today it is on display at the Louvre.
The inscription is known as KAI 282, RES 930, or the "fourth Sidonian".
