Syyn-Churek mountain

Syyn-Churek mountain is situated on the 150th kilometer of the route Kyzyl - Ak-Dovurak. Syyn-Churek means "a heart of a deer". The mountain reminds a pyramid.

There are more than 300 paintings on the southern and south-eastern slopes of the mountain. These paintings take a special place among all the ancient monuments of Tuva. The paintings depict tigers, horses, antelopes, goats, people and solar signs. There is a vast burial territory near the eastern slope. 20 burial mounds are already excavated by archaeologists. 5 of them had tombs. Scientists defined that these tombs belonged to warriors. It was proved by the remains of wooden spears with iron heads, iron plates and arrow-heads which were found in the tombs.
