ACM Group continues its work to identify previously unrecorded historical structures in the mountainous region of Ingushetia and to enter information about them into the Unified Electronic Database of Ingushetia’s Monuments—a project being developed by the company with the full support of the SAFMAR Charitable Foundation. Structures exhibiting characteristics of cultural heritage sites must also be entered into the Register of Cultural Heritage Sites of Ingushetia to ensure their legal and physical protection.
The ACM Group team has completed the identification and study of structures at the Targim tower complex. While the existing register lists 26 cultural heritage sites, ACM Group specialists identified an additional 155 monuments at Targim, including towers, crypts, ruined structures, and 86 stelae.
ACM Group has submitted 155 applications to the Committee for the Protection of Cultural Heritage Sites, requesting the inclusion of these newly identified structures in the Register of Newly Identified Cultural Heritage Sites of Ingushetia. We hope that, within 90 working days, these 155 monuments will officially gain cultural heritage status and take their rightful place among the Russian Federation's other unique monuments.
