Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this project, I investigated and researched the sites and inscriptions on the Yenisei Khirghiz people in the Khakhassia and Mongolia with the local researchers under the international joint research agreement of Japan, Khakhassia and Mongolian countries. Through this investigation and research, I can say that some of them are to be written to express their own name and identity, and are related to his shamanistic belief in the spirit of the rock mountains and rivers.
Analyzed the distribution of rock arts with runic inscriptions along the Yenisei River, I would like to clarify the campaign route of Yenisei Khirghiz and the historical background of their campaign against the Northwestern Mongolia in the 9-10th centuries AD.
