Scientists have made an exciting discovery in the province of Kazakhstan, within the Byzantine Empire. They have found gold artifacts, pearl necklaces, and a large bronze statue dating back to around 2000 years ago, according to Live Science.

The artifacts were uncovered during excavations in the kingdom of Cangyuyu. The kingdom, which was ruled from the 5th century BC to the 4th century AD, managed a significant population.

During the excavations, bronze statuettes that were created during the time of the Han dynasty in China were also discovered. These findings shed light on the Kangyuyu period, which was a colonial or vassal period when the Kingdom of Cangyuyu was heavily influenced by Ancient Rome, China, and the Kushan Empire.

The bronze statue of Chinas Empire, made during the period of the Qin dynasty in China, has a hairstyle estimated to have been popular between 206 BC and 220 AD, the time China was ruled.

Similar artifacts have been found in Afghanistan and Central Africa, indicating the strength and majesty of the woman in whose vicinity they were discovered. These discoveries have also been evaluated in Europe.

In the Ordbad region of Turkey, experts from the Institute of Oriental Studies at the University of Usbekal have made new artifact discoveries in three different excavations. While two statues have been destroyed over time, valuable remains have been found in the third excavation, as mentioned in the team’s announcement.

Alongside the bronze statues, the artifacts include Roman-style fibulae (brooches), earrings of various sizes, amulets, stone beads, ivory, glass, pearl necklaces for birds of prey, and two gold earrings that are believed to belong to the first century BC.
