| Reverse description | A dome-shaped baetyl, sacred stone of the god Dusares, is displayed prominently atop a monumental stepped altar with a staircase ascending from the left. On each side of the altar stands a robed figure, interpreted as a priest, facing inward toward the baetyl and holding what appears to be a branch or cult implement. The scene reflects the indigenous Nabataean religious iconography of the region, with the encircling Greek legend identifying the civic and divine context. |
