Description
The tomb was discovered and excavated in 2011.
The tomb is an example of a Chinese-style Turkic memorial complex, dated to the second half of the 7th century CE, with Chinese architectural influence due to the control of the area by the Tang dynasty at that time.[5] Chinese culture and military power had been dominant over the Turks, since the Turkic defeat under Illig Qaghan in the War of Yin-shan (630), marking the end of the Eastern Turkic Khaganate.[11]
The Shoroon Bumbagar tomb is near and contemporary to the tomb of Pugu Yitu, a Turkic chief who was also a vassal of the Tang dynasty under the Jimi system, and died in 678 CE.[5]
