Archaeologists have discovered a rare stamp and statues belonging to the ancient Turkic Ashina tribe in Mongolia, reports said Saturday.
The discovery was made during excavations in Shiveet Ulan, led by the Turkic World Educational and Scientific Cooperation Organization (TWESCO).
TWESCO President Darhan K?d?rali said significant archaeological findings have been made in the area since 2014.
"Numerous unique stones with stamps belonging to the Ashina Khagan tribe, as well as lion statues were found in the excavations," K?d?rali told the Anadolu Agency.
He noted that the statue is well-preserved and is a rare find.
K?d?rali also noted that other findings in the area suggest the area had been used as a monument for a khagan and that they will continue to work to identify more details about it.
Archaeological excavations are also being carried out near Kerulen region, with many artifacts suggesting that the region had been one of the holy lands of the Turkic tribes during the [Göktürks] period.
The first Turkic people, who referred to themselves as Turks were the [Göktürks], who appeared in the 6th century AD.

Interesting.
Stamp? Like for using on documents in wax?
Quick! Blow it to smithereens before Allah gets offended.
The Chinese don't **** around when it comes to their "restive" muzzie population.
Probably a misprint. All the rarest stamps are misprints.
LOL
Dunno. Could be an ESL problem with the translation.
Had the stamp been cancelled?
Larry Tate was so mean to Richard Pryor in that movie.
Like for pasting on the envelope containing an ancient missive in the Paleolithic Post Office.
