| 要約: | The paper analyzes several polymorphic creatures found on the rocks ofMountTepsey(Krasnoturansky District of Krasnoyarsk Region), which combine the features of ungulates, carnivores, birds and other creatures. All of them are dated within the Scythian period. The main focus is on the character, dicovered on Tepsey II in 2014, which differs from the others as it represents two connected beings of similar origin: the croup of the the main character (deer) is where the head of another one (also a deer) ‘grows’. The paper presents numerous analogies and makes the principal conclusion that the region was inhabited by artists of ‘Pazyryk’ traditions, which seems to be very important not only for understanding the artistic component of the era, but mainly for historical reconstructions. |
