博爾巴任
Por-Bazhyn (Por-Bajin, Por-Bazhyng, , Tuvan: Пор-Бажың) is a ruined structure on a lake island high in the mountains of southern Tuva (Russian Federation). The name means "clay house" in Tuvan. Excavations suggest that it was built as a Uyghur palace in the 8th century AD, converted into a Manichaean monastery soon after, abandoned after a short occupation, and finally destroyed by an earthquake and subsequent fire. Its construction methods show that Por-Bazhyn was built within the Tang Chinese architectural tradition.

博爾巴任（俄語：Пор-Бажың）是一處回鶻人聚落遺址，位於今日俄羅斯圖瓦共和國湖中的小島上。博爾巴任在圖瓦語的意思是「陶器建成的家」。 古遺址1891年被發現，蘇聯考古學家曾於1950、60年代對那裡進行挖掘工作。根據在遺址發現的物件，斷定聚落建於公元8世紀。根據的霍多爾‧伊什特萬的說法，遺址中人類日常活動的證據稀少，以致辨別建築物的功能有困難。可能性包括堡壘、宮殿、寺廟，以及天文台等。自然地理系的Dmitriy Subetto的推論，聚落是因為建築者對永久凍土欠缺認識而被迫放棄。 挖掘工作仍然持續，總監Tigran Mkrtich指遺址建於757年。出土的物件包括了印有人類足跡的泥版，以及宮殿牆壁上的彩色繪畫。
