These heads alone are taller than a man. On the eastern terrace the 9m high statues are well enough preserved to see the gods sitting on their thrones. The statues are in the same order on both terraces; Apollo, Tyche the Commagene god of fertility, Zeus, Antiochus and Hercules. Reliefs of the genealogy of Antiochus as well as others are now being restored. Opposite, at the other end of the terrace, is an altar with several steps leading up to it from all four sides.
