Hunting relief, Miletus, Aydin, Turkey
Stone relief of a hunting scene with a mythological winged centaur creature holding a baby animal being chased by a wild animal, possibly a lion or tiger, in the Miletus Museum, Miletus, Aydin, Turkey. Miletus was an Ancient Greek city on the Western coast of Anatolia. Although settlement began here millennia ago, its heyday was in the Hellenistic and Roman periods. The city was finally abandoned in the Ottoman era when the harbours silted up. Picture by Manuel Cohen
