A seminal scholarly and artistic publication by the renowned Kazakh archaeologist Kemal Akishev, dedicated to the treasures of the Issyk kurgan, a Saka burial mound discovered in 1969 in southeastern Kazakhstan. This large-format album, published by the state art publisher "Iskusstvo," presents a comprehensive study and lavish photographic documentation of the extraordinary finds from the mound, including the famous "Golden Man" and the inscribed silver cup. The book stands as a foundational work on the art, culture, and history of the ancient Saka (Scythian) tribes of Central Asia and is a landmark of Soviet archaeological publishing.
