Three well-made and designed stone statues can be seen on the southeast downhill of Shiveet valley, more than 40 kilometers south of the center of Ongon Soum in Sukhbaatar province. The stone statues situated in Shiveet are embellished with meticulously crafted and aesthetically appealing accessories, such as hats, ponytails, robes, belts, and chairs. These decorative items are exquisitely designed and serve to enhance the visual appeal of the statues. The beads depicted on the stones of places like Tavan Tolgoi and Shiweet are a historical fact that sheds light on religious issues.
