A monument dedicated to Kojomkul Kadaev, son of Kaba, is a shepherd born in the village formerly "8 March" in 1888. He became famous for a very imposing body and his sports victories in wrestling competitions. Its exact height and weight are uncertain. We are talking about a height of 1m97 to 2m30 with a weight between 164 and 203 kg. He liked to ride and carry huge stones, and a little-known but still current sport, carrying a horse! Kojomkul died in 1955.
