In Tuva, in the vicinity of practically any inhabited area, you can find “open books”, where our ancestors left the traces of their lives on this territory. Stone statues, petroglyphs, deer stones, remains of ancient military fortifications, irrigation canals, kurgans holding burials of kings, chieftains, leaders, warriors of the tribes of Sayan-Altai… “To the credit of our distant and recent ancestors, I would like to note that antiquities of Tuva have been preserved better than anywhere else…” Sergei Shoigu writes in the “Tyva Depter” anthology, of which he is the collector and editor.

 The very first object to be submitted to the “Nine Treasures” contest was Mount Dogee, located near Kyzyl. A veteran journalist, honorable citizen of Kyzyl, Kara-Kuske Choodu, told of the secrets of this well-known, yet, as it turned out, unknown mountain. She has always been a place of veneration, and every year, rituals of sanctification have taken place here. Multiple ovaa on the mountain were destroyed by the revolutionaries during anti-religious campaigns in the 30’s of the last century. |

What was really Por-bazhyn – a castle, a palace of the ruler, a mandala or a temple? What does the complicated labyrinth of its buildings and structures represent? Candidate of physical and mathematical sciences Dadar-ool Dan-Sürün presented his version. In his opinion, Por-Bazhyn is an ancient Uighur observatory. He shared his version with the readers of “Tuvinskaya Pravda” and “Subbotnaya panorama”. The publication caused a great resonance. One of the first who responded was Doctor of historical sciences, professor of TGU Nikolai Abayev.
