Museumification of ancient rock art monuments in the north-west of the Minusinsk basin

The issues of museumification of archeological monuments in the territory of the north-west of the Minusinsk basin had become relevant by the end of the previous century. The rapid destruction of the archeological monuments caused developing the project of the Karatag conservation area. Its territory should include the Karatag rocks together with its rock art and the adjacent areas where other archeological monuments are located: burial mounds, stone sculptures and ancient temples. The presence of such a conservation area will allow solving scientific, educational and awareness-raising problems.
