This 35m high monument was constructed
by Mithridates II, as a memorial to his mother Isas.
Situated 10km north of Kahta at the entrance to Nemrut
Dagi, it was created to hold the royal ladies of Commagene.
Four columns surround the site, each around 10m high,
and surmounted by the large figures of an eagle and
a lion.
