This media file captures a portion of an ancient marble capital featuring a carved winged sphinx, displayed outdoors on a sunny day. The sphinx is intricately detailed, with feathered wings, a human-like face, and a lion's body. It rests on a stone pedestal that has a descriptive plaque attached. The plaque, written in English and what appears to be Greek, identifies the artifact as a "BIG CAPITAL WITH SPHINX FROM Hierapolis (M.S. 2nd Century A.D.)". The setting includes a paved area of light-colored stone tiles, a patch of dry grass and dirt, and some green foliage from an olive tree in the background. A modern structure with a glass roof is also visible on the left side, suggesting the artifact is part of an archaeological site or museum exhibit. The bright sunlight casts distinct shadows, indicating it is likely midday.
