Outdoor Research Helium Rain Jacket & Pants Review

The Helium line from Outdoor Research has set the standard in lightweight and packable rain shells for backcountry adventures and travel for years. In 2020, their updated Helium Rain Jacket and Rain Pants offer a better fit, improved waterproofing and durability, and are even lighter weight than before. The new Helium rainwear launched in spring of 2020 exclusively at REI.

• Durable for ultralight

Partial pant zippers

After a lot of research, we found that the average lightweight rain jacket costs between two and three-hundred dollars. With an MSRP of just $159, we consider the Helium rain jacket to be a very affordable ultralight option. The Helium pants are also well below the average cost of lightweight rain pants. Both are a solid choice for those on a budget and an excellent value for the price.

When we put the Helium jacket (women’s medium) on the scale, it weighed a mere 5.9 oz. Conveniently, the pants weigh exactly the same. This means you can carry full rain protection for less than 12-13 oz. That’s incredibly lightweight, considering most rain jackets alone weigh more than the Helium pants and jacket combined. Because it’s so amazingly light, the Helium rainwear is excellent for activities where keeping weight to a minimum is really important, like hiking and backpacking.

The Helium rain jacket packs down to roughly the size of a grapefruit, so it won’t take much room in your backpack or travel bag. It’s designed to be stuffed into its own chest pocket, eliminating the hassle of keeping track of a small stuff sack. It’s also equipped with a hang loop for convenient carrying on a belt loop or backpack. Just keep in mind, that the visor on the hood might get a bit misshapen if compressed for a long time. We like to store our rain jackets loosely at the top of our backpacks for easy access or hang them on a hanger in a closet at home.

It’s fairly common for manufacturers to cut out hand pockets in ultralight jackets to keep weight and cost down, but hand pockets are nice to have. We wish the Helium rain jacket had hand pockets to provide relief for our hands when it’s cold and wet outside. Since it doesn’t have any, we protect our digits from the elements using waterproof gloves or rain mitts . For those who don’t tend to use hand pockets, the simplicity of this design will work great. For us, we tend to prefer jackets with high angled hand pockets that work well with backpack hip belts, but it’s hard to find those types of features in this weight class and price range.

The latest Helium rainwear is made with a tougher fabric than previous versions, but ultralight jackets still tend to be less durable then heavy-duty rain shells. So we wouldn’t recommend this jacket for rugged off-trail adventures or if you’re really hard on gear. As with any rain gear, it’s smart to be prepared to do field repairs with Tenacious Tape when using the Helium jacket/pants in the backcountry. Also, like all rain jackets, you will need to re-treat the Helium with DWR spray periodically to restore water repellency as it wears out, especially in the shoulders where backpack straps rub.

Pit zips are another feature that manufacturers often cut out when designing ultralight jackets to keep weight and cost to a minimum. Zippers at the underarm allow you to dump excess heat and moisture that build up as your body works hard and gets warm. The Helium rain jacket doesn’t have pit zips, so it’s not quite as breathable as it would be with that feature. That said, that no rain jackets are truly very “breathable,” and it’s likely you’ll overheat hiking uphill even in a jacket with pit zips.

The Helium rain pants feature a partial zipper at the ankle that makes it easy to access shoe or boot laces for adjustment. It’s possible to put on and take them off without removing your shoes, but only if your footwear isn’t too bulky. If you wear boots, you’ll probably need to take them off. A Z-Seat Pad is really handy to stand on if you need to take off your shoes to step in or out of rain pants without getting your feet wet. Unless pants have full side zippers (which makes them heavier), this is a common annoyance with rain pants and overall, the Helium pants are pretty user-friendly.

Overall, we like the slim design of the Helium Jacket, but it fits a bit on the snug side so you’ll have to size up if you want the ability to wear a down jacket underneath. Generally, jackets that are a little bit roomier have better airflow and are more versatile for layering.

Bottom Line

The Helium Rain Jacket and Pants are among the most affordable options in the ultralight rain shell market. Since they pack up small and don’t add much weight to your load, this rainwear is especially fitting for hiking, backpacking, travel, or even to stash in your car for the unexpected. Though the Helium jacket lacks a few features that would make it more functional, like hand pockets and pit zips, it’s still a great buy for those who are on a budget or those who prefer a simple, ultralight design.

Outdoor Research Helium Rain Jacket Long-Term Review

The bottom line.

• Outdoor Research Helium ( women’s / men’s ) is an ultralight rain jacket popular with backpackers and other weight-conscious outdoor adventurers.
• I’ve been using a Helium jacket since 2014 and recently bought the updated model. Its light weight and small packed size are unbeatable.
• For very stormy weather or non-stop drizzle the Helium is not quite robust enough, but it’s perfect for summer mountain weather.

If you’ve spent much time on the trail, you’ve surely seen the legendary Outdoor Research Helium Rain Jacket ( women’s / men’s ) out in the wild. Its unique combination of featherlight weight, functional design, and affordable price have made it a favorite of backpackers (and bikepackers, peak baggers, climbers, travelers, and other varieties of adventurers) for over ten years.

I actually own two OR Helium rain jackets. When my first began disintegrating after eight years of use, I bought another. Outdoor Research recently updated the Helium rain jacket to be even lighter, more durable, and sustainable, and I was excited to try it out.

Though the durability issue bears addressing (and I’ll share those details in this review), my second purchase says a lot about how much I appreciate this jacket and how well it fills a unique niche.

Between my two versions I’ve tested the Helium Rain Jacket on the John Muir Trail, Tahoe Rim Trail, Arizona Trail, Western Wildlands bikepacking route, and many shorter shenanigans by foot and bike. In this detailed review I’ll help you decide if the Helium Rain Jacket is right for you.

Overview: Helium Rain Jacket

Price : $180

Weight : 6.3 oz (women’s)

Sizes: XS – 4X

My rating: 4.3 / 5 stars, serves its purpose well with a few compromises

Shop Helium Jacket at:

My conclusion : The Outdoor Research Helium Rain Jacket is a favorite thanks to its featherlight weight, tiny packed size, and functional-yet-minimalist design. Though it’s not the best choice for gnarly alpine conditions or back-to-back soggy days, the Helium is surprisingly durable and really shines as a wind and occasional rain layer in moderate 3-season conditions. It may not stand up to many years of heavy use, but at its affordable price point I can’t complain.

Reasons to buy:

• Impressively lightweight and packable
• Affordable price
• Comfortable and versatile fit
• Streamlined no-frills design
• Made with bluesign-approved materials for sustainability
• Comes in wide range of sizes up to XXXL / 4X
• Lots of color options

Reasons to avoid:

• Wets through in heavy rain
• Not the most breathable; gets clammy inside (wish it had pit zips)
• Zipper is difficult to use one-handed
• Chest pocket too small for many phones, no hand pockets
• Durability issues with the inner lining after years of use (based on the older Helium II model – maybe the newer version holds up better)

Helium vs. Helium II

The Helium rain jacket has been around since 2010, long enough to go from the Helium to the Helium II and now back to just Helium. Naming new product versions must be a tough job. 🙂

My original jacket from 2014 is a Helium II. My latest version from 2022 is the newer Helium. The two use entirely different materials, as they should. Technical fabric technology has improved considerably in the last eight years.

According to Outdoor Research, the new version’s “Pertex® Shield with Diamond Fuse Technology enables the Helium Rain to be 5x more tear-resistant than the Helium II, and an even lighter weight.” Personally I prefer the look and feel of this new Diamond Fuse fabric, which has a more matte texture and feels less shiny / sticky to the touch. As for the tear resistance, neither of my two jackets – including the 8 year old Helium II – has any tearing, but I’m pretty careful with my gear.

You can still find a dwindling selection of older Helium II jackets for sale, but don’t be fooled: the “II” is actually a step backward. It’s still a great product and you might be able to get it for a discount. But if money isn’t tight and you’d like the latest and greatest, look for “Helium” without the II.

How I Tested The Helium Rain Jacket

I own two Helium rain jackets. The first, a burgundy “Helium II” model, was bought to hike the John Muir Trail in 2014. Since then it’s traveled the Tahoe Rim Trail , Arizona Trail , and a bunch of shorter hiking trails and bikepacking routes.

After seven years of periodic use, the lining on the inside of my Helium II began to peel off. When the damage accelerated I decided to replace it. I bought my replacement Helium, chambray blue color, in 2022 from the updated line. So far it’s seen action at a handful of bikepacking races, some short backpacking trips, and a 1200-mile stretch of the Western Wildlands bikepacking route.

This review includes a mix of my impressions from both models. I have more experience with the older one and many things haven’t changed, but I’ll let you know which observations are relevant to which versions.

Technically this is a women’s review of the OR Helium Rain Jacket, and I hope it’ll be especially useful to female readers. But the men’s and women’s version are very similar; only color choice and minor fit differences distinguish them. My husband also owns a men’s Helium II jacket from 2014 and gives this review his thumbs up. His experience with it has been very similar to mine.

Weight and Packed Size

Weight is what sets the Helium apart from the pack, so let’s start with that. The updated women’s Helium weighs a mere 6.3 oz !

At this weight the primary competitors are from ultralight backpacking companies catering to thru hikers, such as the Zpacks Vertice and the Enlightened Equipment Visp . Both have a slightly different set of features (including pit zips) and higher price tags.

For comparison the Marmot Precip , which I also own and like, is a popular affordable rain jacket with a $100 price tag. It weighs 9 oz, still fairly lightweight but significantly heavier than the Helium. A number of other popular lightweight rain jackets fall within the 8 to 13 oz category, while a burly 3-layer jacket for all-weather use (like the Arc’teryx Beta AR ) can weigh 16 oz or more.

As for packed size, the Helium disappears into your pack. The chest pocket functions as a tiny little stuff sack if you want to be tidy about it.

Weather Protection

A rain jacket has one key job: keep us dry when there’s water coming down. Depending on factors like elevation, air temperature, and wind speed, this can be a serious matter of safety. The Helium jacket does pretty well in this regard given its weight, but it’s not a trust-your-life-to-this-jacket-in-any-weather kind of jacket.

Typically, 2.5 layer waterproof jackets like the Helium are lighter than 3-layer jackets, but they don’t keep you dry as reliably. They’ll do fine in light rain, but in a sustained deluge they’ll eventually wet out in the most exposed areas (shoulders, arms, or back, depending on your activity). I’ve definitely found this to be true of the Helium, especially after extended use. Washing and treating with Nikwax TX.Direct restores the waterproofing for awhile but needs to be repeated each season.

The Helium shines as a lightweight rain jacket for 3-season adventures with occasional rain . It’s also an excellent emergency layer to throw in your pack for a day hike — it’s so light you’ll forget it’s there until you need it. The Helium is a popular choice for lightweight thru hikers, so it’s a common sight on trails like the PCT, AT, and AZT. It’s mostly an appropriate choice for these environments, but more than a few PCT hikers have surely wished for a 3-layer rain jacket after a few soggy days in the Pacific Northwest.

The Helium would be a risky choice for high alpine adventures outside of summer season. Basically, if it’s cold or windy enough that getting wet could be dangerous, I personally reach for a more robust hardshell jacket.

I use my Helium often in dry weather as a critical part of my lightweight layering system. I tend to run cold, so I’ll throw on the Helium over my puffy at camp or even while I sleep for extra coziness. It’s also an excellent windbreaker on blustery days and chilly bike descents.

Breathability

Letting moisture out while preventing it from coming in is the crux of good rain jacket engineering. The Helium, with its 2.5-layer Pertex Shield waterproofing, makes some compromises in this department.

The minimalist design lacks pit zips and the fabric feels less breathable than Gore-Tex. This leads to a hot and clammy feeling during higher aerobic output. Hiking or biking on flat ground in cool weather usually works fine, but grinding uphill or running can quickly lead to overheating.

During low aerobic output, like sitting around at camp or even sleeping on extra-cold nights, I find the Helium very comfy. It only starts to feel clammy if I’m working up a sweat inside. To be fair, this is a challenge for every rain jacket and the Helium does well enough. Personally I would trade a fraction of an ounce more weight for pit zips.

Fit and Sizing

The Helium rain jacket has a straightforward, comfortable fit: large enough to layer a medium-weight puffy underneath but trim enough to avoid unnecessary flapping or bunching.

I’m 5’5″ and 120 lbs with a slim build. My Helium jackets are size small, which is my usual size. The Helium women’s small fits me well if a little loosely. My husband has a broader torso and muscular build, but he’s also happy with his usual size medium in the men’s Helium.

Of note for people who, like me, have long arms: the sleeves on the Helium rain jacket are elastic and sufficiently long. They cover a long-sleeved midlayer and keep my wrists dry, even when riding my bike with arms outstretched.

Comparing my Helium II from 2014 with my new Helium model, Outdoor Research has enlarged the fit in every dimension. The modern version is a little wider, about an inch longer, and the sleeves are a bit lengthier. My 2014 model did feel a little tight when layered over a puffy jacket, so I’m in favor of these changes. I’m sure they’ll also help the jacket fit a wider range of body types.

Outdoor Research offers the Helium in a broad range of sizes: women’s XS – 4X, and men’s S – XXXL, to fit as many outdoor adventureres as possible.

Materials and Construction

The Helium is made from 30D bluesign-approved ripstop nylon with waterproof Pertex® Shield Diamond Fuse technology. The older Helium II was smooth and felt slippery and clingy against bare skin. Happily the new Helium has more of a textured finish both inside and out, improving the next-to-skin feel.

Two minor additions to the new version that I appreciate: small reflective detailing for nighttime visibility, and a soft zipper cover in the chin area to avoid scratchiness when the collar is fully zipped.

The Helium’s hood is minimal but functional, and hasn’t changed much from the older Helium II. It’s smaller than average and doesn’t provide full storm coverage (as compared to the hood on my Arc’teryx Beta AR for example) but the small brim is still helpful.

I especially love the adjustable cinch cord at the back. It lets me snug the hood down so it stays on my (small) head, and also enlarge it to fit over a helmet. Though it’s certainly not full-coverage when used over a bike or climbing helmet, it does prevent water from getting into the helmet vents.

The YKK “AquaGuard” zipper on the Helium rain jacket does its job. I’ve never noticed water seeping through. However, especially on my new Helium model I find it a bit too stiff. It’s loosened up a little over time, but it’s still hard to raise or lower with one hand.

The Helium’s minimalist design includes a single zippered pocket on the left outer chest, but no hand pockets or interior pockets. The chest pocket is well-positioned to not conflict with backpack straps, but isn’t big enough to fit my smartphone (which measures roughly 3″x6″).

I’m a heavy user of pockets on my rain jackets — to warm my hands, keep my gloves handy, or protect my phone from water — so the Helium’s lack of bigger pockets is a minor annoyance for me.

I’ve already mentioned that I bought my new Helium rain jacket when my old one started falling apart, so let’s talk about durability. The Helium, especially the new version with Diamond Fuse, is impressively durable for its weight. It is still a lightweight jacket though, and I would not expect it to last forever if you’re using it often.

My original Helium II jacket was eight years old and well-used. The outer fabric is still in good condition, but the innermost layer started peeling off in chunks on high-wear areas like the shoulders and back. It seemed only a matter of time before my 2.5-layer rain jacket ended up as a 1-layer jacket… So when I spotted the new Helium on sale at an awesome price, I bought one.

The new jacket shows minimal signs of wear so far after a month of bikepacking. I’ll try and remember to report back in another eight years!

As I noted above, the Helium’s water resistance is not perfect and decreases over time. About once a year I wash mine with Nikwax TX.Direct to restore the waterproofing.

Price and Value

In my opinion the OR Helium rain jacket is a great value. In the outdoor gear world we’ve come to expect high prices for quality lightweight gear, but the Helium is a rare exception. Sure, you can pay less for a decent jacket like the Marmot Precip , but if ounce saving is your goal you can’t beat the ounces-saved-per-dollar-spent ratio of the Helium rain jacket.

True, my 8-year-old jacket eventually needed to be replaced. If it had cost twice as much I would have been disappointed. But honestly, at the Helium’s price point and weight I’m willing to replace it after a few years of hard use.

Other Options to Consider

If you’re in the market for a true ultralight rain jacket, the Zpacks Vertice is another option to consider. It weighs one ounce less and is more fully-featured (pit zips, drawstring cuffs) but costs over $100 more than the Helium. The Enlightened Equipment Visp is similar.

If you’re into ultralight hiking, you might also be considering a radically different option: a poncho! Basic emergency rain ponchos are quite affordable, but those made for backpacking (like this one ) can be heavier than the Helium jacket and almost as expensive (though you may not need rain pants, which saves weight and money).

I’m not a poncho devotee so I’ll leave it up to you to do that research. For occasional showers in warm and low-wind areas I might consider it, but generally I want full upper body coverage to keep me warm, dry, and safe in the backcountry.

If you’re not counting every ounce and want a full-featured rain jacket at an affordable price and very reasonable weight, check out the Marmot Precip .

Finally, if you’re planning for serious alpine adventures in variable conditions you’ll be better off with a 3-layer waterproof jacket. Consider the Arc’teryx Beta AR if you’re feeling spendy, or the REI Co-op Stormbolt if budget is a big factor. Outdoor Research’s newer Helium AscentShell 3-layer jacket, targeted at alpine conditions, might also be worth checking out.

In Conclusion

The Outdoor Research Helium rain jacket is a mainstay in the ultralight hiking world for good reason: its unique combination of light weight, packability, and affordable price sets it apart from the competition.

The Helium is a specialized product for a specific niche, and it won’t meet the needs of all outdoor adventurers. If you spend a lot of time in high alpine or soggy conditions, you’ll likely be disappointed by the Helium’s lack of features (like hand pockets and pit zips), smaller hood, and tendency to wet out in heavy rain.

But if your goal is to travel fast and light (or slow and light) in moderate conditions while staying warm in occasional rain, you can’t beat the Helium’s weight, size, or value. If, like me, you find yourself using it so much that you eventually wear it out, you might even find yourself buying another to fill that unique niche.

Helium Overview

Helium Price History

In 2021, the Helium Network secured $111 million through a token sale prominently led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. This fundraising round also saw significant contributions from various investors, including 10T, Ribbit Capital, Multicoin Capital, and Alameda Research, which has since declared bankruptcy.

Following this achievement, Helium Network further advanced its financial standing in February by raising $200 million in a Series D funding round. This substantial investment valued the project at $1.2 billion and featured prominent backers such as Tiger Global and FTX Ventures.

Helium Network transitioned from its proprietary blockchain to the Solana blockchain in September 2022 to enhance its technological infrastructure. Concurrently, Nova Labs, associated with the Helium project, inked a significant contract with T-Mobile. This agreement aimed to augment Helium’s network coverage, specifically targeting areas lacking coverage.

In the 2021 bull run, HNT rose from $1.4 to its all-time high of $55.22 on November 12, 2021. HNT corrected to $26.03 in December before rising to $41 in January 2022.

In the 2022 crypto winter, HNT started losing value and has not significantly recovered. By December 2022, HNT had dropped to as low as $1.18. At press time, HNT was down 92.66% from its all-time high. In 2023, the coin was bullish in the first and last quarter of the year. In December alone, it managed over 2X gains from the previous month.

More about the Helium Network

What is helium.

Helium, also known as Helium Network (HNT), was launched in July 2019. It’s a fast-growing decentralized blockchain that allows peer-to-peer WiFi access to IoT devices using limited internet power demand—for example, tracking electronic bikes and wearables. 

Helium blockchain consists of hotspots launched on the market that give the public network coverage and compensate with HNT in return. Unlike the usual WiFi hotspots with little coverage reach and depend on a close distance between gadgets, the Helium token is different. 

Helium LongFi protocol for stable internet access

Helium cryptocurrency provides a better viable alternative to internet access. It doesn’t matter if you’re kilometers away. You’ll have stable internet access with the Helium LongFi protocol and the global united network. This means that you can connect wirelessly from anywhere in the world. The Helium hotspot uses PoC to confirm a device’s location, as it transfers data and protects the network infrastructure. Subsequently, the operators get rewarded with Helium cryptocurrency. The Helium coin has two primary uses:

• For mining benefits: Hotspot operators receive HNTs for providing, validating, and maintaining device data coverage and transfer. The reward is calculated on the volume of data transferred and the quality of coverage.
• For generating data credits: The data credits from HNTs can serve as payment for services like data transmission and transaction charges. 

Features of the Helium Network

Before Helium’s network performed seamlessly, some components contributed to this flawless performance. Let’s have a look.

Proof-of-Location

This feature successfully interprets a device’s location without power-draining or expensive satellite installation; the digital currency network uses a wireless high-speed internet service. The devices can accurately and securely represent location, and the blockchain records it.

Proof-of-Coverage

Helium uses the PoC to confirm that a device’s location is accurate and is truthfully giving a precise location for the wireless coverage by the hotspot. With the help of the PoC, blockchain, and Helium’s network can use the information disbursed to provide evidence beneficial to network users and the network itself.

WHIP is a wireless high-speed internet service designed for low-power devices over a large area. It uses chips from different manufacturers with no proprietary technology or required modulation schemes.

Helium’s network consensus protocol

The consensus protocol operates on specific mechanisms. Hotspots operating within Helium’s network specifications and consensus rules have full permission to participate freely in Helium’s network.

Another characteristic is no incentive to leverage factors like cheap energy costs or extra hardware around the exact location.

Thirdly, the protocol should endure Byzantine breakdowns to reach a consensus; some users are honest. Due to this, Helium’s network uses HoneyBadgerBFT.

Also, there should be a high rate of approved transactions per second, and hotspots should lack the censoring ability and should not select or deselect transactions in the block.

Helium Decentralized Wire Network (DWN)

This function supplies wireless internet connection to devices using different independent miners. It indicates which network and WHIP specifications the users on the network follow. Routers pay the various miners for internet coverage. Subsequently, these miners get tokens for network coverage and data transmission to the internet.

How to Buy Helium (HNT)

• Go to CoinMarketCap and search for Helium. Tap on the button labeled “Market” near the price chart. In this view, you will see a complete list of places to purchase Helium and the currencies you can use to obtain it.
• Under “Pairs” you’ll see the shorthand for Helium, HNT, plus a second currency. The second currency is what you can use to purchase Helium. If you’d like to purchase HNT in U.S. Dollar, look for HNT/USD.
• Pick a platform to make your purchase. Different platforms have different levels of security, reliability, and liquidity. Before creating an account, do your research. Binance offers many options. You can easily buy Helium (HNT) with the lowest fees and highest security anywhere Binance is available. HNT is not available on Coinbase.
• Crypto Darling Helium Promised A ‘People’s Network.’Instead, Its Executives Got Rich .
• How To Mine Helium: Basic Guide

According to HNT price predictions, despite conflicting projections for the HNT price, there is general agreement that the coin’s value will rise in the long run. So, it can be considered a good investment if you’re looking for long-term profits.

But remember that forecasts are frequently off, so before buying cryptocurrencies, conduct your research and only invest what you can afford to lose. No matter the predictions, the price of a cryptocurrency might go up and down.

The Helium network is what gives HNT its value. By burning Helium, data credits are created, which are used to pay for utilizing the Helium network. This indicates that Helium becomes rarer and more precious as network use rises.

Can Helium (HNT) reach $50?

Yes, it is possible that Helium can reach $50, but only in the distant future, after 2030.

Is Helium a good investment?

Yes, indeed. Based on our HNT token forecast data, investing in Helium might be profitable. But it is highly recommended to do your research before investing in any cryptocurrency

What is the purpose of Helium (HNT)?

The Helium Network allows low-powered wireless devices to communicate with each other and send data across its network of nodes.

What is the Burn-and-Mint Equilibrium model in Helium (HNT)?

The Helium Network uses a Burn-and-Mint Equilibrium model. HNT is burned out of circulation to use the Network. Data Credits are created by burning HNT and have a fixed USD value.

What are Data Credits in Helium (HNT)?

Data Credits are the only payment accepted to send data over the Helium Network. They allow users to transfer bytes of data via Helium. The price of Data Credits is fixed in USD (1 Data Credit = $0.00001). To acquire Data Credits, network users convert HNT or obtain them from an HNT owner.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.
