Archaeo-Histories on Nostr: A Russian fisherman named Nikolay Tarasov was fishing in the Dudet River near Tisul ...

A Russian fisherman named Nikolay Tarasov was fishing in the Dudet River near Tisul in Siberia when his net snagged something that at first looked like an ordinary stone. On closer inspection and after washing off the mud he realised it was a small carved figurine rather than a rock.

Thinking it might be just odd at first he nearly threw it back, but instead took it to the Tisul History Museum.
