Description This paper described the evolution of early symbols of power in Inner Asia. Specific heavenly symbols, tigers, reptiles, or early depictions of nobility (kings/shamans or warriors) can be found on the rock art, graves, pottery, and royal clothes. Selected sequences of their depiction document their gradual evolution from preliterary stage till modern attestations on royal and ritual robes of Mongolian nobles and rulers of Manchu and Joseon dynasties.
