This article is about the first archeological monument – the group of archaeological sites namedTytkesken 6, which was first mentioned in 1983. M.T. Abdulganeev was looking for the monuments,which could be damaged while building the Katun Water Power Station and marked them on a specialmap. In 1984 the scientists of Barnaul State University found another group of mounds situated notfar from the first one. They were named Tytkesken 1 and Tytkesken 2.They continued their work andfound many sufficient artifacts which were left by the ancient реоple оn the places of their settlements.They were named Tytkesken 3 and Tytkesken 4 and 5. The scientists were researching them since 1984till 1991 and found that there were many objects made from stone, bronze and iron, which illustratedthat people lived there from 5 century B.C. till 1 century A.D. All those settlements were found оn theright bank of the river. In 1988 the scientists came to the conclusion that the grave complexes situatedоn the right bank of the river and on the left one were different from each other. That`s why the oneon the left bank was named Tytkesken 6. From 1988 till 1993 more than 60 monuments of skiffs periodwere researched (5–3 centuries B.C.) the scientists also learned about some settlements of Turkicperiod (552 year A.D.). A great number of specialists took part in the work. They were pupils, students,scientists from many towns and cities of Siberia. From 1983 till 2006 more than 20 archeologicalmonuments were found and researched. But our scientists are sure that much more artifacts could befound in the valley of the river Tytkesken in the nearest future
