Titulus	A Lion and a Leopard Attacking Animals
Descriptio	English: On the left side of this relief, an Asiatic lion attacks a gazelle, while a rabbit tries to jump away from the gazelle's forelegs. On the right, an Arabian leopard jumps down from rocks onto the back of an ibex; a small rodent flees the hoofs of the ibex. Birds in the branches of acacia trees observe the two scenes. The frieze was broken in two during the civil war in Yemen in 1962, and the longer right section was discolored by fire.
