On July 22, KSMU students from Malaysia, Botswana, Brazil, Nigeria, and other countries had the opportunity to delve into the history of Kursk region, a place that has become their second home.
During the guided tour organized by MMI instructors to the Kursk State Museum of Archaeology, the students explored several halls dedicated to different periods of our region’s history, including the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic eras. The students showed great interest in examining mammoth bones, ancient tools, figurines of deities, weapons, masterpieces of pottery, the Ants Treasures, a reconstructed model of a Scythian settlement, and Kuzina Gora fortifications. However, the most awe-inspiring exhibition for the students was “The Gold of the Huns,” which showcased ceremonial weapons and horse harness decorations that once belonged to a warrior-rider from the 4th to 5th centuries and were found in the Kursk region.
