Talk:Abakan

Removed

The place is remarkable for certain tumuli (of the Li Kitai) and statues of men from seven to nine feet high, covered with petroglyphs.

Until clarification. there is definitely no kurgans in Abakan itself. Second, I fail to find anything similar to Li Kitai; only EB mirrors. mikka (t) 03:57, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

The 1911 EB original says "hieroglyphics". Kitai is Russian for China (Kitai-gorod). Possibly a reference to the Li people? Or maybe the Kitai Tartars. --Auric (talk) 21:04, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
