In the Akmola region, a mausoleum from the Golden Horde era has been discovered by archaeologists from Astana, media reports. The burial, which dates back to the 15th century AD, was found in the Korgalzhynsky District and is the third monument in the area.
Despite the foundations being intact, the walls of the mausoleums had to be reconstructed brick by brick. The unique find is an 8-coal structure, with each side measuring just over 1.5 meters and a diameter of about 4.5 meters. Made from burnt and semi-burnt brick and fastened with lime mortar, it was once a place of pilgrimage.
Archaeologists discovered various household items without any remains of the Golden Horde inhabitants. The researchers hope their discovery will provide insight into the burial traditions, religious rites, and culture of the Golden Horde, which can be included in a multi-volume book on the history of Kazakhstan.
Earlier, Daryo reported that archeologists had discovered a mausoleum and madrasah in the Barshynkent settlement of Kazakhstan.
