Abstract

There have been discovered some figures of spiral shape among rock paintings of the Western part of the Tarbagatay mountains (East Kazakhstan), which are supposed to depict the so called labyrinths. Such kind of figures are quite common for the petro glyphs of Eurasia and are usually associated with the idea of the spirit world. The author considers the figures, mentioned above, within the frames of this generally accepted concept.
