A Neo-Babylonian rock relief of Nebuchadnezzar II was found in the area of the modern city Qubbayat, close to the Wadi Oustane and the Jebel Akroum. The monument at Shir as-Sanam is about 16 Km from Qubbayat, on the road to Chambouq and Hermel. It is about located ca. 120 meters from the road, on the western side, 15 m. above the ground.
