The Kybele Rock Relief was curved into the N-E side of Mt. Sipylus n high relief. It portrays a women sitting on a flat rock. The four Hittite hierogliphs are hardly visible n a frame to the right of the goddess head. Dimensions:8 m heigh and 4.5 m wide. There are two inscriptions: one ca 3 m to its right side might be read Zu(wa)-wa/i-ni and one to the left read by Bossert as Ku(wa)lanamuwa or Ku(wa)lamuwa. The identification among some scholars is that the figure is a male with a beard i.e. Hittite mountain god - Sarruma. Kuwalanamuwa is attested in Hittite texts of Mursilis II (ca. 1321–1295 BC) as some commander. In the second century AD, Pausanias recorded the figure in his Description of Greece as a depiction of the mother goddess, Cybele, made by Broteas the son of Tantalos1.

- ↑and some thirty stades farther is Acriae, a city on the coast. Well worth seeing here are a temple and marble image of the Mother of the Gods. The people of Acriae say that this is the oldest sanctuary of this goddess in the Peloponnesus, although the Magnesians, who live to the north of Mount Sipylus, have on the rock Coddinus the most ancient of all the images of the Mother of the gods. The Magnesians say that it was made by Broteas the son of Tantalus.
