Rahsaan Khad

Rashaan Khad is a rocky site in the Khentii country, near Binder Mountain. Its surfaces bear animal figures, human images and hundreds of clan marks, accompanied by inscriptions in scripts from several periods. Among them are Turkic, Khitan, Mongolian, Persian, Chinese and Tibetan writing. Stone tools and nearby burial sites reveal a much longer history of human presence, making the rock a meeting place of traces left by successive peoples of the steppe.
