English: One of the Yuan and Ming Dynasty monuments on the Tyr cliff (Khabarovsk Krai), seen ca. 1860 and described by E.G.Ravenstein in his book as follows: "The first of these monuments stands two paces from the precipic and is about five feet high. Its base is granite, and the upper portion is a grey fine-grained marble. From two inscriptions on this monument we learn that in former times a temple or monastery stood here. The Archimandrite Avvakum ... believes them to have been made by some illiterate Mongol lama, .... who wrote 'Tzi-yun-nin-zy' instead of 'Yun-nin-zy-tzi', i.e. 'Inscription on the Monastery of the Eternal Repose'. On the back of the monument a similar inscription occurs in Mongolian. On the left-hand side stand the Sanscrit words 'Om-mani-badme-khum', and beneath in Chinese, 'Dai Yuan shouch'hi-li-gun-bu', i.e. 'The great Yuan spread the hands of force everywhere'. In a second line, on the same side, the words of 'Om-mani-badme-khum' are written in Chinese and Nigurian. The inscription on the right side contains the same in Chinese, Tibetan and Nigurian."
