Archaeologists have made a significant discovery in the Chuy region of Kyrgyzstan, unearthing stone artifacts that depict a female figure dating back to the early Turkic period. This remarkable find occurred during excavations at the Borombay archaeological complex, located near the village of Kyzyl-Oktyabr in the Kemin district.
The artifact features a woman adorned with a distinctive three-horned headdress, and experts believe it originates from the pre-Turkic Kenkol culture. Researchers have called attention to the uniqueness of this find, as the tumulus structure associated with it has not been previously identified in the Altai region.
In total, the excavation site recorded 41 ancient structures, although many have suffered damage or looting over the years. The discovery contributes to a deeper understanding of the early Turkic period and the cultural practices of the time.
