Rare Artifacts and Full Horse Skin Found in Medieval Siberian Burial
During an excavation ahead of the Kyzyl-Kuragino railway construction, archaeologists uncovered an unusual elite burial in the Sayan Mountains of southern Siberia. Dating to the 9th or 10th century AD, the grave contained the remains of a woman and a newborn, alongside a remarkable set of grave goods. Most strikingly, the burial included the complete skin, skull, and lower limbs of a horse, a rare funerary offering for this region.
This discovery, detailed in a recent study by researchers from Novosibirsk State University, sheds light on the complex burial rituals and cultural exchanges of medieval nomadic societies in the Eurasian steppe. The grave, known as Sayany-Pogranichnoye-4, was found in the Idzhim River valley in the Krasnoyarsk Krai region.
The woman was buried with gold earrings, horse gear and skin, and a newborn child. (Press Service of the Institute of the History of Material Culture of the Russian Academy of Sciences)
A Rare Equestrian Offering
The inclusion of a horse in the burial is particularly significant. While horse burials are common in some ancient steppe cultures, the specific practice of burying the horse’s hide with the skull and lower limbs attached is highly unusual for the Sayan-Altai region during the medieval period.
