In the collection of the Archeological Museum in Kraków there is a stone statue (inv. no: MAK/7911), belonging to examples of monumental statue sculptures. It was created by the Turkic - Mongol nomads who arrived in the Black Sea region in the mid-11th century, and were known in Europe as the Cumans, Kipchaks or Polovtsy. Details presented on the stone figure from the Krakow collection find their analogies in the material obtained from Polovtsian grave inventories. Dating of all the above described elements indicates the period from the mid-11th c. to the turn of the 13th and 14th century. Erecting figures representing images of women and men on older burial mounds served various functions in the Polovtsian culture.

A sculpture representing the so called “Polovtsian baba” (no MAK/7911;) was made available for a dissertation in the Stone Sculpture, Stucco and Ceramics Conservation Workshop in the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow (conservation no – 537), in order to carry out research and subject it to conservation treatment, which would allow the statue to be exhibited in the open air. The technical and plastic conservation was conducted in the years 2005-2007. Photographic and descriptive documentation was collected, and laboratory examination was conducted (including the following analyses: petrographic, chemical - of salinity and types of pigments and mortars, microbiological), technical treatment was applied to the statue and, to a limited extent aesthetic – plastic conservation was carried out. A metal construction was designed and made to stabilise the sculpture and to enable it to be permanently exhibited in the vertical position.
