Since September 2025, the "Young Archaeologist"
Since September 2025, the "Young Archaeologist" club has been operating under the guidance of history teacher and master educator Yerlan Zhumabekuly Bukenov at Saumalkol Secondary School No. 1.
As part of the club's activities, Yerlan Bukenov developed a 34-hour original course titled “Botai – The Cradle of Nomadic Civilization”. The program is designed for general education school students and is implemented within the framework of the "History of Kazakhstan" subject.
An article by Aset Syzdykov titled “Botai — A Place of Attraction” has been published in the national newspaper Kazakhstanskaya Pravda.
The material is dedicated to the unique Eneolithic-era monument — the Botai settlement, which has become a major site of archaeological research and a spiritual symbol of Kazakhstan's historical and cultural heritage.
We thank the author for his attention to history and the scientific discoveries related to Botai culture.
You can read the article on the Kazakhstanskaya Pravda website.
