NEW IN THE ICONOGRAPHY OF URAL-SIBERIAN SILVER OF THE IX-X CENTURIES
A new find of oriental silver from the Konda area is defined in the article as a monument of the Ural-Siberian circle and dates back to the IX-X centuries. The scene with the plot of gender-based violence is interpreted based on the text of the Sabhaparva, which tells about the suffering of the Pandava queen Draupadi and the deeds of Duhshasana, who won it in backgammon.

According to the technique of manufacturing and the nature of gilding (traces have been preserved), the new find is close to these objects, as well as to the bowl with the image of a spearman rider found near Lake Baikal.
