In a recent report ARCHAEOMETRICAL STUDIES ON WALL PAINTINGS OF ZEUGMA (GAZİANTEP) it was determined that “The sources of yellow coloured pigments were identified as ankerite”. These frescos, as I understand are from the 2nd and 3rd century. Attached are photos of the sculpture in question. I think it may be from the 5th or 6th century.
