Popis: The paper analyses works of the founder of Kazakh archaeology, A. Kh. Margulan, who focused his research on ancient monuments – menhirs, which have not been studied well enough so far. To evaluate A. Kh. Margulan’s research contribution, the authors review numerous data on menhirs published by him as well as the principles and results of material systematization and approaches to attribution. On the one hand, the authors come to the conclusion that A. Kh. Margulan's works are undoubtedly valuable as an abundant source of original material, on the other hand, they stress the need for systematic recording of menhirs to be held on the level required by contemporary field techniques.
