Definition: "Apharsathacites" refers to a type of stone used in ancient Mesopotamian architecture, specifically for temple buildings. It was commonly found on the floor or ceiling of temples due to its smooth, flat surface that allowed it to be easily carved and decorated with intricate designs. The name "Apharsathacites" comes from the Greek word "aprophytes," which means "thin-skinned." This term suggests that the stone may have been made using a technique where the edges of the stone were worn down to create a smooth, thin surface.
