Siberia & Inner Asia / Mongolia and the steppe

Mongolian steppe traditions.

Sacred places, community ceremonies and transmission.

PEOPLE & CONTEXT

A place, a name,
a living history.

Mongolian sacred-site practices connect community life with mountains, sky, earth and surrounding places. UNESCO documents their transmission through local elders, their suppression and efforts to safeguard them. Named practitioners and local settings remain important within this varied heritage.
