Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Drive to Ulgii town.

Bayan-Ulgii is the most western province of Mongolia. This province is residence of all kazak ethnic of Mongolia.

Deer stones Deer stones are large standing stones of irregular shape and often associated with ritual sites. As a stone type, they are known across Southern Siberia, Mongolia and Kazakhstan.

This form of rock art, widespread throughout northern Mongolia and southern Siberian Steppe, apparently dates back to the Scythian Period and Pre-Hsiung-Nu period, between 500 and 800 BC.

The weapons illustrated on the deer stones are identical with Scythian weapons, and date the timing of the making of the stones as ca 1500 to 1800 BC.
