Saraishyk is improving

The staff of the state historical and Cultural Museum-Reserve “Saraishyk” expresses its gratitude and gratitude to the Akim of Atyrau region Dosmukhambetov Makhambet Zholdaskalievich for the support of the research work at the Khan molasy excavation.

On behalf of the museum-reserve staff, we wish you further success in your work and hope that we will jointly implement many projects related to the medieval city of Saraishyk. Last year, employees of the museum-reserve carried out archaeological excavations on the site of the “Khan’s tomb”, which was marked in 1861 by the military topographer A. E. Alekseev on the schematic map of the city of Saraishyk. Ethnographic materials that tell about the existence of the “Khan’s grave” were also confirmed. But in order to fully open the special tomb found at the site of the excavation and expand the excavation, the old graves buried in this area were hindered. With the support of the governor of the region, 20 graves around the excavation were moved to another cemetery and reburied.
