notes:
The stone warrior "Adyr-Kan" is one of the few deer stones of the Altai Mountains remaining in its historical place (many were stolen or taken to museums throughout Russia). It is a stone pillar about 1.5 meters high and no more than 40 cm wide, slightly askew from time. At the top, the warrior's face is clearly visible, below is a sword, a bow in a burning (a Scythian wooden case for a bow and arrow), on the reverse side is a figure of a horse. There are also inscriptions here, presumably in the Old Mongolian alphabet. The age of the stone warrior is about 2-3 thousand years. It belongs to the Scythian culture. Until now, scientists cannot tell the true purpose of such stone sculptures

Такое не часто встретишь.

Познавательно, но в области скульптуры.
