In a burial mound at Karagaily, in the Nauryzbay district of Almaty, Kazakhstan, archaeologists found a tiny cast-gold bear. It stands on its hind legs holding a vessel, weighs only about 7 to 8 grams, and small holes suggest it was once sewn onto a headdress.
The mound, about 25 metres wide and 2.5 metres high, is provisionally dated to the 4th to 3rd century BC, the Saka era. It was looted in antiquity, but the robbers missed the bear. The Almaty Museums Association says nothing like it has been found in Kazakhstan before.
The bones may belong to seven people, four adults and three children, while mounds this size usually held one or two. Research is still going on.
Who were these seven?
