Introduction Ancient Turkic sculpture includes figurative images of a person with a vessel in one hand (with or without weapons), sculptures of only a human head or face, as well as a few figures with a vessel in both hands raised to the chest. In many cases, faces are shown stylized. Often, the eyebrows form a single relief with the nose. Sometimes the T-shaped shape of the eyebrows and nose is combined with large eyes. Due to stylization, the images of the faces of the statues can not be considered either realistic,or even portrait. However, it seems that the stylized elements had a certain meaning. Distribution of the T-shaped bas-relief of the eyebrows and nose and the origin of the technique from a technological point of view The T-shaped image of the eyebrows and nose, which is the same as on the statues, is noted by researchers on cast bronze "faces" [Sher, 1966, p. 67; Kyzlasov and Korol, 1990, p. 129], on wooden Eezi heads* [Ivanov, 1979, p. 185-186, fig. 179]. Combined bas-relief of the eyebrows and nose is common in coroplasty and toreutics of the medieval East [Meshkeris, 1962, Tables VI, 69, 77; X, 112; XVI, 299; XVII, 304, 305; XVIII, 315, 317; XXIV, 364; XXV, 365, etc.; Marschak, 1986, Abb .32, 33, 193, 198; Trever and Lukonin, 1987, fig. 26 et al.] (see Figure 5). In the works of coroplastics and toreutics of Sogd and Iran, on the golden jug from Nagy-Saint-Miklos (Hungary), medieval cast "masks", there is also a combination of the bas-relief" eyebrows-nose " and large figures characteristic of sculptures (especially Western Turkic ones**). eye [Meshkeris, 1962, Tables XVII, 304, 305; XVIII, 315; XXIV, 364; XXVIII, 374; XXIX, 378, 379; Trever and Lukonin, 1987, figs. Korol, 1990, fig. 43, 2; Haussig, 1992, Abb. 114] (see Fig. 4). The technique of T-shaped stylization of eyebrows and nose has become widespread in time and space. Examples of its use are heads from Lepenski Vir (Serbia), sculptures from Ancient Mesopotamia, plastic of Celts, Mixtecs, et ... Read more
