The technique and style used to depict the man statue are closely connected to the artistic traditions of the Turkish Khaganate, which thrived from the 6th to 7th centuries AD. The statue founded the Toglokhyn steppe within the Battsengel soum of the Arkhangai province. Crafted from exquisite grey granite, the sculpture portrays a dignified figure of a man in a standing posture. Notably, the artisan has intricately depicted the man's belt and fingers, showcasing a high level of artistry and attention to detail.
