The Lukyanus Inscription and Equestrian Rock Relief, also referred to as the Lukyanus Monument in historical sources, is located in the Beyşehir district of Konya. Dating back to the Roman Imperial period, the monument is situated 100 meters east of the Fasıllar Hittite Rock Monument. It consists of a 1.85-meter-high equestrian relief and a niche carved into a steep rock approximately 10 meters above the ground. To the right of the equestrian relief, approximately 5 meters above the ground, is a Greek inscription measuring 0.85 x 0.95 meters. This inscription describes horse races to be held in memory of a young cavalryman named Lukyanus, and the rules of these races. (Source: Konya Provincial Directorate of Culture and Tourism)

Since the right column in the niche was broken and lost over the years, a representative "life-size" representation of this column is displayed in another corner of the site.
