Two archers with recurve bows and gorytus apparently shooting toward each other; nearby an aurochs or yak. Boulder within a draw in the eastern half of section.
Two strange walking (?) figures on side of small boulder above the left bank of the Tsagaan Salaa, below confluence with Tygyd. Figure on left has a long sleeve, reminiscent of Karakol culture images. Third, uncertain element between the two figures.
Tiny image of a solid wheeled cart drawn by four fleet horses and driven by a figure possibly carrying a tall staff or spear. On flat bedrock, high terrace.
Detail of scene to right of large bull: three archers, two with long bows, two with horned headdresses, one also with large quiver and daluur shooting at fine, parcelled goat on left. Crude goat and larger horse possibly done later.
Section of ""Large Panel"" with two stags and a snow leopard, all by different hands and from different periods. The upper stag is from the Pazyryk Period, the lower stag has characteristics of the Tashtyk style, and the snow leopard is Iron Age. Deeply scraped, discolored horizontal surface.
Low outcrop covered with images of animals, mostly running. At least one image (far right) was done at a much later time. Within a hidden draw, south side of the valley, east end of complex.
Three layers of imagery: Bronze Age figure with large headdress; three crude riders from the Iron Age; and more recent, crude frontal figure. On vertical surface of outcrop.
Scene with many figures all executed in the same hand: a large yak, a variety of animals, a spirit figure (bell-shaped) and what may be a dwelling. On the upper surface of a massive, tumbled boulder.
Scene with archer walking to his left, large birthing woman in center, smaller animals. On damaged sloping surface. Note that the pecked surfaces have large fallen off.
Fine bull with small head, rounded horns, full body and long, broom-like tail. Note that much of the pecked surface has fallen out, as has that of images above and below. On a very broken, vertical surface.
Vertical surface with the remains of several animals, including two fine bulls with long tails. Note the way in which the pecked surface has fallen out, leaving a ""ghost"" image.
Detail of RA_PETR_TG_0388, showing the way in which the small animal was pecked over the large elk and the differences between the large and small elk in pecking quality and patina.
Small, vital elk with large antlers; dense, re-patinated pecking. Contrast fine, indirect pecking of the elk with the cruder, direct execution of the more recent goat on the right. Flat, scraped bedrock.
Boulder with large caravan scene in which loaded yak are led by figures and carry some kind of unidentified construction. The stylized stag head in the lower right is different in style but the same in patina. The outlined caprids are probably Turkic in date.
Variety of animals; stags with variety of antlers, ibex with large horns, two hunters. Scraped, rolled bedrock surface; natural pits have been enlarged artifically at some time in the past.
Detail of second rider on horse with long, full tail and head overlaid with leg of a later argali. Clear example of process of re-patination on argali. Scratch marks around images.
Detail of large hunting scene: three archers, upper one unfinished and executed with deeply gouged lines; archers on right and left shown in process of drawing their large bows. Archer on left carries a large quiver at his waist.
Group of animals representing several different hands and periods. The bulls and dogs or wolves are by one hand, the large horse and goats by one or two other hands.

Two goats on sloping surface of boulder. Both appear to have the same light patina and similar simple style, but the lower image is more competantly handled than is the upper image: one hand? Two different hands?
Deer or elk suckling her young and confronted by a predator (dog?). Crushed hardened rind has fallen out in several places, revealing the dark grey matrix.
Two roughly pecked frontal figures, at least one with one arm raised as if in a dancing or ritual pose. On edge of low boulder in area where there are many old images.
Elegantly pecked, stylized stag, small stag with other antlers but executed in same pecking style. Images repatinated, on red, polished bedrock surface, high terrace, east end of complex.
Detail of hunting scene, showing small archer, elk, and variety of animals. Note variations in pecking technique. Variations in coloration of patina may or may not be indicative of variations in date.
Vehicle with spoke wheels and pulled by two horses. Figure holds no reins and seems to have ornaments on the side of his/her head. The central shaft has been overpecked. Image is on a horizontal surface on a ridge on the south side of TS III.
