The Karasuyr archaeological complex (Ulytau oblast, Republic of Kazakhstan) is a Golden Horde military burial site, first investigated in the historical territory of the Ulytau Ulus of Jochi. Radiocarbon dating establishes the calendar age of the burials: the end of the 13th century. Eight excavated burials most likely belonged to a military detachment. Six male burials included ancient military ammunition. Two female burials are distinguished by funding a bronze mirror. The paper presents five facial reconstructions based on anthropological materials (skulls) from five Karasuyr burials, using the method of M. Gerasimov and modern digital technologies based on the MetaHuman tool. The anthropological modeling shows that most of the buried individuals belong to the cranial racial complex of Central Asian Mongoloids, one of them is a variation of the Baikal cranial group, and another falls within the Europoids.
