Stone girl
Daniel Gottlieb Messerschmidt, the first Explorer of Siberia, discovered this boulder with a diameter of about a meter, in 1722 the first of the Europeans. The boulder was in the Askiz steppe, on the Bank of the river Es. On the boulder was a pattern of the face and upper torso of the girl so the local tribes called him "Khys TAS" - "stone girl".
Даниэль Готлиб Мессершмидт, первый исследователь Сибири, обнаружил этот камень диаметром около метра в 1722 году, первым из европейцев. Булыжник находился в Аскизской степи, на берегу реки Есь. На валуне был рисунок лица и верхней части туловища девушки, поэтому местные племена называли его "Хыс ТАС" - "Каменная девушка".
There is a drawing of a boulder, made in 1742 by the lieutenant of geodesy Ivan Shishkov.
Существует рисунок камня, сделанный в 1742 году поручиком геодезии Иваном Шишковым.
There is also a modern drawing of a boulder, which allowed revealing difficult-to-distinguish petroglyphs.
Существует также современный рисунок валуна, который позволил выявить трудно различимые петроглифы.
From the end of the 19th century to the present, this boulder is kept in the Minusinsk Museum.
С конца XIX века и по настоящее время этот камень хранится в Минусинском музее.

This is a Wow boulder @irvet!! Whoa Outstanding Wonderful = Wow
I wonder where the rest of her body is, looks like the head part was removed from a much taller stone perhaps. Some of the geometry of the human form reflects the movements of the heavens. Her hair reminds me of Nut the egyptian sky arch lady. Parts of the patterns on the left kinda look like parts of the deer on the Mongolian deer standing stones. Quite a bit of information going on on boulders! :-)
Thank you for showing these amazing pieces of history in stone! I'm sure enjoying seeing your part of the world!! Quite a few of them in the musume there, do they all have some carvings on them?
Happy boulder Sunday 2U! :-)
At the end of the 19th century in the Museum boulder was already in this form, alas, vandals have existed at all times...

There are many stones with petroglyphs, the most interesting are kept in museums:
Thank you, @shasta. :-)
Ancient Boulder art! Fascinating.
Thank you, @melinda010100.
Archaeologists attribute this art to the late 3rd - early 2nd Millennium BC.
It is so impossible for me to imagine who those ancient people were!
I find it hard to even imagine how long before us they lived :-)
I see you went boulder hunting and found a prize. Stone Girl is amazing! Thank goodness she was found and is now kept in a museum so she can continue to tell her story.
Alas, the vandals had time to work on the boulder...
Aw, that is a shame! I don't understand why people would do that. So sad.
