Two colossal statues, one of Helios (inv. Sk 177), the other of an unidentified goddess (inv. Sk 159), said to have been found together in the ruins of a temple near Lykopolis (Assyut) in Egypt. Inscriptions on the plinths identify them as dedications to "Zeus Helios the great Sarapis, and the gods who share the temple with him" by a gymnasiarch in the reign of the emperor Antoninus Pius (A.D. 138-161).
