In a triptych "Rock carvings of Atiai" I have tried to show connection between the Altai epos "Maadai Kara" and rock paintings found in Altai. The sign of the Center of the World and the Tree of Life, placed in the center of a composition, belongs to Pazyryk culture of Altai (approximately 1000 BC); to the same culture belongs the epos "Maadai Kara".
