A bit of Kazakh history

I visited the museum a couple weeks ago with my students. One part of the museum was devoted to ancient Kazakh history.
Below is the Golden Man, considered as the symbol of Kazakhstan.

The next picture is of a house during the same period.

The next exhibit was interesting. It was a Kazakh tomb in which it seems the husband was buried with his wife and horses.

The picture below shows the earthen mound that the above tomb was buried under.

I want to go back later with a translator to get more information about the above exhibits.
