Quote:hello Ruben,
another question - is the catalogue all in German? - I sprache kein Deutsch -
I found it for about 40 dollars with shipping - not bad for for big book of muzeum quality pictures and academic texts...
Yes, unfortunately it is entirely in German. It also doesn't include pictures of some of the most interesting new finds that were displayed in the exhibition, which is frustrating as it is the only source that I know of that features pictures of the new Arzan finds and the two new Altai warrior burials. For instance, the perfectly preserved sagaris of one of the two warriors was not included in the book, despite the fact that it was one of the most spectacular items on display from that burial.

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
