There are many artifacts carved from stone in the area, which the Gaziantep Directorate has turned into an open-air museum. Among them, there are statues of the Sphinx, gate lions, seated lions, winged lions, inscriptions of the mountain god, and architectural elements. As a result of the ongoing excavations, more than 300 sculptures and drafts of the sculptures have been discovered.
