It was discovered in 2001 during excavations carried out in Orkon Valley, at the future Bilge Khan Monumental Grave Complex, located about 400 km (250 mi) from Mongolia's capital Ulaanbaatar, between the Orkhon River and Khosho Tsaydam Lake. The artifact was produced in the 7th century, during the Turkic period of rule in the Orkhon Valley, in the Second Turkic Khaganate. The deer has been praised for its proportions and its skillful engravings. It shows the high level of craftsmanship reached at the time. The figure of the deer was symbolically important to the Turks, and it also features in other noted artworks located in northern Mongolia, the so-called Deer stones. (en)
