This is a black obelisk...a big black piece of stone...it's a replica and as you can see it has 5 or so panels of pics on the side. 
This is a close-up of panel two going down from the top. The little guy prostrate before a foreign is King Jehu from the Old Testament. This is the earliest picture of a Biblical character that we have!
And this is the infamous Ba'al! It was found on the Meggido plain and is about 5-6 inches tall. For all that the Bible says about him I thought he'd be bigger!
