It shows on the left an arch that may have contained an urn or a statue of the buried person, flanked by two unchanneled Corinthian columns. To the right is a stomping horse.

 
   

 
   

To the right below the tomb is an inscription of which Prof. Dr. Hasan Spring of Selçuk Üniversitesi in Konya says it is a monument to the Roman rider Lukuyanus, who died at an early age.
