The Aksaray Stele is a Syro-Hittite monument that was found in the city of Aksaray in western Cappadocia in central Turkey. It is exhibited in Aksaray Museum (inventory number 1-1-77).
According to the British hithitologist John David Hawkins, the site of the find had been the construction site for the Mehmet Şişman İşhane in Hükümet Caddesi. It was published in 1982 by Massimo Poetto.[1]
Hawkins published the stele in his Corpus of Hieroglyphic Luwian Inscriptions in 2000.[2]
