  Stela 5 at Izapa   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Dominating Stela 5 is a fruit-laden tree situated in the center of the carved design, with its roots in a base of ”ground” panel and its upper branches extending into a sky panel.
The circumstantial evidence of the mighty realities behind the symbols on Stela 5 is that Jesus is the Christ and that, in our journey through life, we may inherit eternal life by adhering to the teachings and the ordinances of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Stela 5 is not only the probable story of Lehi and his family in association with their partaking of the fruit of the tree of life, but it also represents the symbolic quest for eternal life by all mankind.

 Magical Stela - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The stela belongs to a group of stelae known as the "Cippi of Horus" or 'Stelae of Horus on the crocodiles'.
The stela was then presented to Prince Metternich in 1828 by Muhammad 'Ali Pasha before being finally donated to the Metropolitan Museum of Art where it was known for many years as the Metternich Stela.
The main function of the Metternich Stela was for the magical healing of poisons, mostly caused by animals.

How Stela and Monsonius met for the first time and at which age they were then cannot be said.
Though she was the muse of Monsonius, you won't find any descriptions of Stela in his writings, not even in his diaries, which mainly contain philosophical thoughts, ideas and observations of various kinds.

 The Merneptah Stela - ChristianAnswers.Net
Since the date of the reference to Israel in the Merneptah Stela is during the time of the judges, prior to the establishment of the monarchy, it is of crucial importance to understanding Israel's formative period.
Gideon lived close to the time of the Merneptah Stela and he was a farmer living in a small village (Judges 6).

 The Merenptah stela   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The stela itself is a commemorative hymn celebrating his victory over Libyan invaders in his 5th year (conventionally 1208 BCE, but around 880 BCE in the New Chronology), and also listing other defeated adversaries.
The reason it is thought to contradict the New Chronology is that it refers to Israel with a linguistic determinative meaning a people or ethnic group, whereas the other nations mentioned on the stela are marked with the determinative for a people with associated territory.
Conventionally the stela would be located in the Judges era of Biblical history, in which the impression of being unsettled would be accurate, whereas the New Chronology places Merenptah in the early divided kingdom when the people were living in fortified cities and the description appears less suitable.

There is no question that the stela was physically in the United States prior to 1971 (the date of the U.S.-Mexico Treaty of Cooperation) and well before the Regulation of Importation of Pre-Columbian Monumental or Architectural Sculpture statute of 1972.
If we acquired the stela, we would describe in detail, in accompanying explanatory materials and in one or more illustrated publications, the history of the stela, the care and research that went into its acquisition, and current problems and issues concerning national patrimony.
After some consultation they concluded that the stela was most likely from Guatemala, thanked us for contacting them, and stated that in their view the Museum had taken all the correct steps.

The frieze at the top of this limestone stela shows a line of gods worshipping a figure of the goddess Mut which is now lost.
The main area of the stela is covered with a grid, each square of which contains a group of hieroglyphic signs.
The stela's name is slightly misleading: it is not like a modern 'crossword' puzzle; the horizontal line of text above the grid indicates that the grid contains a hymn to Mut, and that it should be read 'three times'.

 Tikal: Stela 11 (#b3_011)   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Stela 11 records the latest date found at Tikal -- it was dedicated in AD 869.
However, the ruler who performed this dedication remains unknown, for the glyphs comprising his name are too badly eroded to be read.

 The Restoration Stela of Pharaoh Tutankhamun
His Kingship is that of his father Osiris son of Re, the son who is good to the one who begot him, plentiful in monuments, rich in wonders, the one who makes an accurate monument for his father Amun, fair of births, the King who has established Egypt.
Dynasty, he usurped the stela by overcarving his name in two places in the Five Horus Names of Tutankhamun.
It is therefore not a great stretch to attribute the original authorship of the Restoration Stela to Tutankhamun's then General of the Armies Horemheb.

In dealing with this stela it must be emphasized that the interpretation of iconography is extremely difficult and complex.

Wells Jakeman, The Complex "Tree-of-Life" Carving on Izapa Stela 5: A Reanalysis and Partial Interpretation (Provo, UT: Brigham Young University, 1958).
IS5, among the stela at Izapa, is "the most complex scene" in the collection, and perhaps in all of North America from before Christ.

 Maya Stela Fragment Returned
According to Ian Graham of Harvard's Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, who noted the missing section of the stela when he mapped the heavily pillaged site in 1971, the fragment once formed part of a belt worn by the Maya ruler carved on the stone pillar.
Sources tell ARCHAEOLOGY that Sotheby's experts suspected the stela fragment was hot and suggested to the owner that they return it as a gesture of good will rather than risk confiscation of the artifact and legal difficulties.
The owner agreed, and the stela fragment's return was arranged by the law firm of Herrick Feinstein, which is representing Guatemala in its effort to recover stolen artifacts.
