Stone statues, indigenous to the early Turks, appeared in the vast
territory of the Asian steppes, from Southern Siberia to Central
Asia and across the foothills of the Ural Mountains. The custom
originated among Cumans in Eastern Europe. The skill of erecting
anthropomorphic stelae required proficiency in processing different
kinds of stone and wood, and was characterized by artistic value of
representations, as well as by the timeless aesthetics of the
canon. The author presents the results of her formative studies
into the collection of the Cuman sculptures of the Veliko-Anadol
Forest Museum, Ukraine. The book delves into the history of
research on Cuman stone stelae, resulting in great reading for all
archeologists and historians alike.
