The temple Madinat Habu, West Bank, Luxor, Egypt. January 5, 2011.

Greek, 400 BC

On the bezel, a youthful Herakles stands leaning on his club, with his lionskin knotted around his neck and draped over his right arm. With his left hand, he holds out a fluted phiale, or offering dish, over a tripod thymiaterion (incense burner). Both Herakles and the incense burner stand on a wavy ground line. The hoop of the ring has a carinated ridge bisecting it and stylized griffin heads on the shoulders below the bezel.

These hieroglyphs are written on a stone wall on the way into Canyonland's National Park.
