Mendür-Sokkon VIII (A-82)

Description

The inscription was made on a small stele near a kurgan in the ravine Koyogor 2–3km from the village of Mendür-Sokkon. On the eastern surface of the stele, there are two lines made by a very thin cutting instrument. The inscription is very much destroyed. One only guess a few strokes. Appearently, there were tow vertical lines. The length of the first line is 16,2 cm, and its 9 signs can be recognized. The second line to the right of the first one is 2, 8cm; it consists of 2 signs. It was discovered in 2003 by V. A. Kočeev.
