Description
This sarcophagus was a coffin of Ahiram, the king of Byblos, an ancient Lebanese city. It has a phoenician inscription, which says: "Now, if a king among kins, or a governor among governors or a commander of an army should come up against Byblos and uncover this coffin, may the sceptre of his rule be torn away, may the throne of his kingdom be overturned and may peace flee from Byblos. And him, may his inscription be effaced..."
