View of the west base that supports the obelisk of Thutmose III. The largest figure in the royal box is Theodosius I. To his left, our right, is Valentinian II the ruler of the western part of the Roman Empire and on his right are his two sons who in turn would rule the western and eastern portions of the Roman Empire.

Below the royal box are kneeling captives.
