A kurgan is the name for a barrow, usually a large one, in the area north of the Black Sea. This one is 19 m high and 100 m across, built around 2400 years ago by the Scythian people. It contained two "royal" tombs, the central one being robbed centuries ago. The second burial was found in 1912. It produced many artifacts, mainly gold, and most of these are now in the Hermitage Museum, in Petrograd/St Petersburg.
