“ Bush & Boat Tour ” We booked the bush & boat tour and we had a great all-round experience. Ngcebo, our guide in the Hluhluwe Game Reserve was great, very enthusiastic and super friendly. He found almost all of the big 5 (the lioness just didn't want to get out of the thicket) and we learned a lot, even about trees and track reading. “ 1 day safari tour ” Great safari tour! Special Thanks to Our guide Darren who was great and gave us nice tour around the park showing animals and giving very interesting info about wildlife.... Serving also great breakfast and lunch 😉 Highly recommend the tour with Darren as a guide - looking forward to my next safari. “ First Class Service ” We had a four day stay with Heritage Tours and from arriving to leaving everything was meticulously organised. Jon was a very knowledgeable leader on the game drives doing his utmost to share his expertise and, of course, find the animals.

Durban’s rickshaw men are a familiar sight on the Golden Mile, colourfully clad in their beaded or hand sewn costumes and impressively horned headgear. They’re also among the strongest and toughest people you’ll meet. They rise at 5am seven days a week and ply their back-breaking trade until 5pm, transporting tourists, kids and the occasional local in their imaginatively decorated, human powered carriages.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.
