The article deals with the stone statues on the river Bayankolchik (now Ulug-Khemsky district, near the village Aryg-Bazhy). The monument is an image of two people standing in front of each other, and four animals next to them. The sculptural group was not included in the range of ancient Turkic and Uighur statues known in Tuva. The sculptures are mentioned in many scientific works of researchers starting from the 18th century. Currently, there are no statues at their original location. Only one lion image of the sculptural group has saved, which is exhibited now in Aldan-Maadyr National Museum of the Republic of Tuva.
