The Siberian Unicorn

Reconstruction of an Elasmotherium, an extinct species of rhino that lived in the Eurasian area in the Late Pliocene and Pleistocene eras (around 39,000 years ago).

This animal could have been the basis for the unicorn myth that has persisted for thousands of years.

The Giant Siberian Unicorn, also known by its scientific name, Elasmotherium (E. sibiricum), is an extinct species of giant rhinoceros that had an extremely large horn on its forehead and a body covered in shaggy fur.

It was first named by Johann Gotthelf Fischer von Waldheim (13 October 1771 – 18 October 1853) in 1808. He was the director of the Natural History Museum in Moscow.

The Giant Siberian Unicorn was about the size of a mammoth. However, early reports say this beast weighed up to 4 tonnes, stood at 6.5 feet tall, and was about 14.76 feet long.

It has been debated on if this animal would gallop like a horse or would walk hunched over with his head to the ground like a bison.

The beast's front feet were larger than the rear and it had just three digits.

It is also debated on whether it had a giant horn on its head or not. Most experts believe it did as there is reasonable evidence of it having a horn based on the skulls they have found.

The skulls had a protuberance that suggested it was the base of a large horn.

The use of this horn could have been to dig for food, attract mates, and for self-defense.

It is believed that their horns and hooves were made of keratin ��� that is, if the horns did exist.

The Giant Siberian Unicorn lived in the Eurasia region during the late Pliocene and Pleistocene periods.

Giant rhinos have been documented from as late as 2.6 million years ago.

A skull was found in 2016 that was perfectly preserved and was of a very old male.

The skull was found in the Pavlodar region of Kazakhstan. It was proven that they died out just 29,000 years ago.

Previously, it was believed they died out around 350,000 years ago, which means they were around when early humans were alive.

From looking at their teeth, it is believed the Siberian Unicorns were herbivores with a diet of grass, plant bulbs, and tubers.

They think this creature could have used its horn to dig up plant bulbs and tubers to eat while also grazing on grass.

Weighing four tons means it would have to eat a lot, so it is thought they would travel miles just grazing and digging up plants to eat.

It is still unclear what caused the death of these beautiful giants.

Little evidence has shown us how they died out, however, scientists believe it could have been environmental factors that resulted in their extinction.

Others believe it could be due to having such a restricted diet or being a “picky eater.”

After the Ice Age ended, the grasslands began to shrink, causing fewer areas for the giant rhino to eat.

Human hunting may also have a hand in its extinction.

Online Database of Qazaq Arts and Crafts

On August 1, the Union of Artisans of Qazaqstan launched a database of traditional Qazaq ornaments, which features extensive bibliography, symbolism and look of the ornaments by region. From the site:

For 12 months the project team went on research expeditions to museums of Aktau, Ural, Kostanay, Kyzylorda, Taraz, Aktobe, Turkestan, Shymkent, and Pavlodar. In addition, the team visited local artisans in the villages of Kyzylorda, Mangistau, Zhambyl, Aktobe, and Turkestan regions.

The meaning of every pattern, its symbolism, region of origin, when and for what it’s used, traditional colors scheme, materials and techniques used are the information the Union studies, documents and adds to the online database of Kazakh traditional arts.

Here is the link. The site is in Russian, but you can translate it in the browser.

The soft muffled peace of the desert, offering space to reflect, reminded me that this was the halfway point of my journey. So far, collisions between food, people and places had been plentiful. But what had I learned? That Tashkent was changing at a rate far quicker than I had realised, and that some of the most valuable parts of the city - filled with tiny bakeries, old mud-walled houses and a million stories - was being systematically reduced to rubble, and was set to scale down further still. Later in the journey, this blow-down theme would continue apace in Samarkand, the Fergana Valley, and in Dushanbe. Paired with rapid development, tourism, striding ever quicker on the old Silk Road, may eventually destroy the very things that it set out to see.

Histories I’d not paid attention to before had been revealed and demanded attention: how hungry and repressed avant-garde artists of Uzbekistan and Russia had painted the food they longed to eat; how small domestic items belonging to women held in gulags were not inanimate objects but precious beacons of hope and memory; how milk was not only the food of nomads but a symbol central to Kazakhstan’s identity. And I found that the newspapers were right: fishing is slowly returning to the northern section of the Aral Sea.

Then, there was the sheer glee of food, often pressed generously into my hands as gifts and welcomes, that told its own stories: I couldn’t have hoped for a more alluring konditorei than Krendel in Pavlodar, nor a better dinner on the Caspian Sea in Aktau, or a more restorative breakfast spot in Tashkent - edible treasures, all, experiences that could have been easily passed over by someone in a rush, but that with time paint a different, more flavorful, picture of this often misunderstood region. Food, as the anthropologist, Claude Lévi-Strauss, said, is ‘good to think with’.

Пахомовское кладбище - одно из старейших захоронений в городе, сегодня является закрытой территорией. В народе Пахомовское кладбище прозвали «живые и мертвые», или даже сокращенно «ЖиМ». Из-за соседства последнего пристанища мертвых и многоэтажных домов живых. Хоронить на нем начали 158 лет назад – в 1862 году. Некрополь был закрыт в 1964 году. Но подхоранивали и в 70-х, и до начала 90-х. Абсурдная и неоднозначная ситуация с Пахомовским кладбищем в Павлодаре длится не одно десятилетие. На погост, находящийся в коммунальной собственности, долгое время никому не было хода. Не пускала «хозяйка». Ни чиновников, ни поисковиков, ни простых посетителей. «У меня на этом кладбище похоронены прадед и прабабушка. В разные годы я пробовала легальным путем проникнуть на территорию коммунального кладбища, чтобы найти и прибраться на могиле родных. Но тщетно. Ворота закрыты, за забором собаки. Потому попытки забросила», - рассказывает местная жительница. Pakhomovskoe Cemetery, one of the oldest burial grounds in the city, is now a closed area. Pakhomovskoe cemetery is popularly known as "the living and the dead", or even shortened to "ZhiM". Because of the proximity of the last resting place for the dead and the blocks of flats for the living. They began burying there 158 years ago - in 1862. The necropolis was closed down in 1964. But it was buried in the 1970s and into the early 1990s. The absurd and ambiguous situation with Pahomovskoye cemetery in Pavlodar lasts for decades. For a long time no one had access to the cemetery, which is under municipal ownership. The "mistress" didn't let them in. Neither officials, nor searchers, nor ordinary visitors. "My great-grandfather and great-grandmother are buried in this cemetery. In different years I tried to legally enter the territory of the communal cemetery to find and clean the grave of my relatives. But in vain. Gates are closed, there are dogs behind a fence. So I gave up trying", says a local resident.

Lena, 55, from Pavlodar in northeastern Kazakhstan, was addicted to drugs for over 20 years. “I remember how it was using drugs: I fell asleep–it’s winter. Woke up–summer,” she said. Unsafe injections among drug-users are a leading cause of transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in Eurasia, accounting for over one-quarter of new HIV infections, UNAIDS, the United Nations AIDS program, reports. The data was released in conjunction with the 25th International AIDS Conference, which concluded July 26 in Munich, Germany. With 140,000 new cases in 2023, Eurasia has seen a dramatic 20 percent increase in new infections over the past 13 years. Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan are among the hardest hit, accounting for 92 percent of newly diagnosed cases. “While most other regions around the globe have managed to stabilize the rates of HIV infections, in Eurasia, it is rapidly increasing,” said Andriy Klepikov, regional co-chair of the AIDS 2024 conference. For the first time in history, there are more new infections outside sub-Saharan Africa than within the region. Lena from Pavlodar beat her addiction with opioid agonist therapy, which relies on substances such as methadone to reduce cravings for heroin, oxycodone or other narcotics. She has been clean for seven years and is now a peer counselor in a mentoring program run by women living with or affected by HIV. The key problem, she said, is that many drug users have no access to “HIV prevention services” or treatment. Experts contend that restrictive laws, aggressive policing, and stigma are helping to drive the uptick in cases in Eurasia. Only half of the 2.1 million people living with HIV in the region are on antiretroviral therapy. Only 42 percent of people living with HIV have suppressed viral loads, the lowest level in the world. Suppression prevents the spread of the disease. “If people are pushed underground, the HIV response will not succeed,” a statement released by UNAIDS quoted Eamonn Murphy, the organization’s regional director for Eastern Europe and Central Asia and Asia Pacific, as saying. Between 2010 and 2023, the number of AIDS-related deaths rose by 34 percent.

Отравился и начал синеть: ребенка доставили в больницу под звук полицейских сирен в Павлодаре

В Павлодаре полицейские, включив сигнальные устройства, помогли довезти ребенка в больницу. Медики сразу поместили малыша в реанимацию, передает NUR.KZ со ссылкой на МВД.

Вечером 29 декабря по улице Камзина к патрульным полицейским обратился мужчина, сообщается в Телеграм-канале МВД.

Водитель авто пояснил, что в машине находится 2-летний ребенок, который отравился и уже начал синеть. Полицейские, включив сигнальные устройства, сопроводили авто с малышом в детскую областную больницу. После осмотра врачом ребенка забрали в реанимацию.

"Для нас главной задачей было спасение жизни ребенка. Была важна каждая секунда, так как в это время на улицах города было многолюдно", – рассказал старший инспектор службы БПП УП Павлодара Казбек Сыздыков.

Мужчина поблагодарил полицейских за помощь.

Напомним, вчера мы писали, что двое полицейских в Астане во время службы заметили мужчину, у которого случился приступ. Один из них оказал пострадавшему первую помощь до приезда медиков.

Похожий случай произошел недавно в Шымкенте – у мужчины прямо на автобусной остановке случился эпилептический приступ. На помощь ему пришли двое полицейских, оказавших первую помощь.

Также ранее мы писали о военнослужащем, который спас пожилую женщину и семью с детьми из горящего дома в Семее. Наряду с этим сообщалось о полицейском, который вытащил из огня 6-летнего ребенка в Таразе. Обоих после происшествия госпитализировали.
