The Golden Man!

 

 

One of the great archeological finds of the 20th century, excavated in Issyk Kurgan, 70 kilometers from Almaty, Kazakhstan, the Golden Man is an “Issyk” chieftain buried in a suit made of more than 4000 intricately decorated and fitted gold pieces. With the latest research dating the time of his burial to the 5th century BC, the Golden Man is a symbol of Kazakhstan’s heritage, strength and independence. Deemed to fragile to display, it is stored deep in the vaults of The National Bank of Kazakhstan, heavily guarded, safe and secure.

Though rarely exhibited to the public, the Golden Man was included in the “Of Gold and Grass” exhibition currently touring the United States, where it is the crowning jewel of the exhibition. Only a company with a proven track record of professionalism, commitment and success could be entrusted with the task of transporting this priceless artifact: Globalink.
Carefully and meticulously packed by our skilled staff, who addressed every minute detail, the Golden Man and other precious artifacts was shipped to San Francisco with the utmost care and security. The exhibition, which will be hosted by some of the most prestigious museums across the United States, will then travel across the Atlantic for display in the United Kingdom in the spring of 2007 and then to Spain in the summer of 2007. Once the exhibition ends, the return of these national treasures to Kazakhstan has also been entrusted to Globalink.
Globalink is proud and honored to be involved in making it possible for the world to glimpse the uniqueness of the Kazakh people's cultural heritage. Being entrusted with the pride of a nation is a sensitive and complex task, one that leaves no room for error or oversight. Therefore is it any wonder that Globalink is the mover of choice for museums in Kazakhstan and The CIS?
