Safronovsky burial ground

Safronovsky burial ground, Archaeological grave field in Khakassia, Russia.

Safronovsky burial ground is an archaeological site with around 50 mounds arranged in linear rows, surrounded by upright stone monuments. Some of these stones still stand tall today and display carefully executed carvings on their surfaces.

The Safronovsky burial ground belongs to the Tagar culture of the Bronze and Early Iron Ages and is about 2,500 years old. It lies in the Askiz district of Khakassia near the Yes River and takes its name from the nearby aal of Safronov. The site is cited in a study of Tagar kurgan architecture by A. G. Akulov and E. D. Pauls.

The site is named after the nearby aal Safronov, and the size of each mound and its stones reflected the rank of the person buried there. The tallest standing stones reach almost 7 metres, and their surfaces carry carved figures. The cemetery belongs to the Tagar culture of the Bronze and early Iron Age.

The burial ground is located in a remote area best reached by private vehicle, and you should bring good navigation skills with you. The site has minimal signage, so it is helpful to get local advice before making the journey.
