A lot of new rock art images of Tashtyk epoch have been discovered on the Yenisei recently, engravings being the most informative of them. The paper presents some new materials that may deepen the understanding of the Tashtyk culture. Some of the examples some are unique. The most interesting engravings are the anthropomorphic images of Tashtyk warriors (hunters?) found all over mount Tepsei. The petroglyphs make it possible to reconstruct the appearance of the people who inhabited the Minusinsk basin for they depict headware, hairstyle, and various elements of clothes. The images have direct analogies with the figures of warriors on the wooden plaques discovered in one of the Tashtyk burials on Tepsey, which allowed scientists to identify the ethnicity of some of the depicted characters. The Tepsey pictorial materials, including rock images, add to the understanding of the Tashtyk people’s appearance: in those unique images we can clearly see them wearing short trousers as well as some new kinds of headwear, which may be the evidence of the previous Tesin tradition and, probably, the Hunnu influence.

Публикация вводит в научный оборот наскальные изображения на горе Большой Сибигур. Памятник расположен в северной части Минусинской котловины, на левом берегу Енисея (Красноярского водохранилища). Впервые изображения были зафиксированы Н.В.Леонтьевым и Н.А.Боковенко в 1980-е годы, однако опубликованы не были. Повторное обследование этого местонахождения с целью полного документирования изображений было предпринято только в 2016 г. автором публикации. В статье представлены фотографии и копии всех рисунков обсуждается проблема датировки публикуемых изображений в научный оборот вводятся новые материалы по наскальному искусству Минусинской котловины. The paper presents the rock art site on the mountain of Bolshoy (Big) Sibigur which located in the northern part of the Minusinsk Basin on the left bank of the Yenisei River (Krasnoyarsk reservoir). The images were first recorded by N.V.Leontiev and N.A.Bokovenko in the 1980s but have not been published. A new survey of this location and its complete documentation was undertaken in 2016 by the author. The photos and tracings of all the imagery are published the problem of its dating is discussed and new materials on the rock art of the Minusinsk Basin are introduced for the scholarly use

Important Evidence

The materials used to make rock art contain important evidence about the cultural practices of the people who created it: their technologies, movements, and social interactions. The number of studies of archaeological pigments in the recent literature demonstrates how fruitful such enquiries can be. In this chapter, the authors discuss the physicochemical characterization of rock art pigments, outline the history of research in this area, differentiate key concepts and terminology, and describe principal methods. They conclude with illustrative case studies from France, South Africa, and Australia to demonstrate the kinds of archaeological information that can be preserved in rock art pigments.

The second half of the twentieth century may be remembered by Chinese archaeologists as the Golden Age of their discipline. A unique combination of factors and circumstances has produced, and will probably continue to produce for a time, enormous amounts of new material for the study of Chinese prehistory and history. These factors and circumstances include a deep-rooted interest of the Chinese people in their past, not only for its own sake but also for guidance, as lesson; the introduction, in the first half of the century, of Western archaeological science; systematic, large-scale, and sustained national projects to construct roads, canals, reservoirs, and buildings throughout China; and a conscious and conscientious effort to include archaeology as an important part of the political education of the people. This sudden flood of new data—most hitherto unknown, and many unexpected and almost unimaginable—provides unprecedented opportunities for gaining new and much richer knowledge of China's past. China scholars will be busy coping with the new materials for decades to come. They should count themselves extremely lucky, for such opportunities are not likely to arise again after the present century; archaeological relics are a limited resource, even in China.

Burial Grounds

In recent years, numerous new sites of Tasmola culture have been studied. New materials significantly supplement the existing ideas about the culture of the population of Central Kazakhstan of Saka era. The present article focuses on three monuments of the early Saka time studied by the author in the Nazar site in Central Kazakhstan. This kurgan with stone ridges Nazar and two other kurgans compose the burial ground Nazar-2. The monument is located in the Karaganda region, which is geographically an eastern part of the Kazakh hills. In addition to the studied objects on the coast of the river Nazar, there are three unexplored burial grounds of the Saka era. All structures of these burial grounds, including those which have not been excavated yet, can be combined by common external features. As a result of excavations graves with dromos oriented to the east were discovered in all three mounds. The diameters of the kurgans are 20-23 m, their height is 1,5-1,7 m. A bronze arrowhead of the early Saka type was found in kurgan 1 of the burial ground Nazar-2. Such monuments, which are characterized by a large size and complex structure, belong to the early stage of Tasmola culture - VIII-VI cc. BC. Three radiocarbon dates obtained on bone samples from mounds № 1 and № 2 of burial ground Nazar-2 in the laboratories of the Royal University of Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom and the University of Miami, USA do not contradict that. According to the author, such detail of the funeral rite as dromos oriented to the east, can be genetically traced back to the cultural traditions of the people of the late Bronze Age in Central Kazakhstan. Tasmola culture of Central Kazakhstan was opened in 1960. New materials largely complement the existing ideas about this culture.

ABSTRACT This paper integrates the first rock art directly dated with radiocarbon (14C) in Southeast Asia with the archaeological activity in the area and with stylistically similar rock art in the region. Peñablanca is a hotspot of archaeological research that includes the oldest dates for human remains in the Philippines. The caves in Peñablanca with known rock art were revisited and only 37.6% of the original recorded figures were found; the others are likely lost to agents of deterioration. A sample was collected from an anthropomorph and accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) dated to 3570–3460 cal BP. The date corresponds to archaeological activity in the area and provides a more holistic view of the people inhabiting the Peñablanca caves at that time. A systematic review was used to find similar black anthropomorph motifs in Southeast Asia to identify potential connections across the region and provide a possible chronological association.

В статье вводятся в научный оборот ранее неизвестные наскальные изображения Тепсейского археологического микрорайона (Краснотуранский район Красноярского края), выявленные в последние годы кемеровскими археологами. Новые рисунки обнаружены в разных участках микрорайона, благодаря крупномасштабным разведкам и использованию современных методов документирования памятников наскального искусства. Выявленные изображения относятся к разным хронологическим периодам, выполнены в технике выбивки, гравировки и прошлифовки. Новые рисунки Тепсейского микрорайона дополняют представления об изобразительных традициях, существовавших в Минусинской котловине на протяжении нескольких тысяч лет. The article introduces into scientifi c circulation previously unknown rock images of the Tepsei archaeological area (the Krasnoturansk District of the Krasnoyarsk Region), which were revealed in recent years by Kemerovo archaeologists. New drawings were discovered in diff erent parts of the area due to large - scale explorations and the use of modern methods of documenting rock art sites. The identifi ed images belong to diff erent chronological periods, and are made in the technique of embossing, engraving and grinding. The new drawings of the Tepsei area enlarge the ideas about the pictorial traditions that have existed in the Minusinsk Basin for several thousand years.
