Archaeologists have identified a distinct Mongolian people as early as the second millennium BC. Several states of the Mongolian tribes such as Hunnu, Jujan, Turkic, Uigur, Kidan succeeded each other before the 12th century A.D. In 1206 the warring nomadic tribes were unified by Chinggis Khan and armed with a swift and powerful cavalry he embarked on military campaigns across Asia, Russia and Eastern Europe. In one and a half centuries that followed, Mongolians built up one of the largest empires known in the world. Before his death in 1227 Chinggis Khan divided the empire into four kingdoms to be ruled by his sons and grandsons. They extended the territory of the empire conquering almost the whole Eurasian Continent from Southeast Asia to the Central Europe.

Mongolia Current time in Mongolia Story: 'Potato of Doom' A travelers experience with one meal in Mongolia Mongolian Culture The Mongolian way of life is nomadic and intimately connected with the ways of animals. Despite urbanisation, the traditions of the steppes live on. Even in the cities, most Mongolians continue to live in a ger , a large, white felt tent that can be moved easily and has a universal layout: the door always faces south; towards the back and a little to the west is the place of honour set aside for guests; the back of the ger, the khoimor , is the place for elders and most treasured possessions; and on the back wall is the family altar, with Buddhist images, family photos and suitcases. Get a local to explain the dozens of traditional, religious and superstitious rules and customs associated with gers. Mongolians have always taken wholeheartedly to Tibetan Buddhism and the links between Mongolia and Tibet are old and deep. Once in a lifetime, every devout Buddhist Mongolian tries to reach the holy city of Lhasa; the Tibetans in turn have relied on various Mongolian tribes to sustain their power. In Mongolia at the time of the communist takeover in 1921, there were 110,000 lamas (monks) living in about 700 monasteries. Beginning in the 1930s, thousands of monks were arrested, sent to Siberian labour camps and never heard from again. Monasteries were closed and ransacked and all religious worship and ceremonies outlawed. Not until 1990 was freedom of religion restored. Since then, there's been a phenomenal revival of Buddhism (and other religions). Monasteries have reopened, and even some ex-Communist Party officials have become lamas. Monasteries and temples (

Mongolia Current time in Mongolia Mongolian Culture The Potato Of Doom: Dining in Mongolia by Dan Bennett Well it's lunchtime and I'm NOT going to do any work over lunchtime, so I thought I'd write up a little story about an experience I had in Mongolia in the Summer of 1992. This could be quite long, depending on how wordy I get 8-) . I was on a short visit (3 weeks) with a couple of missionary-type people, one of whom left after our first week. That left me and an American girl called Wendy (from Florida, Kathy). We were staying in a flat very kindly vacated for us by some Mongolian friends of mine in Ulaanbaatar. We had expressed an interest in visiting somewhere in the countryside, but flying to remote parts was not a good idea because flights were erratic due to fuel shortages. So our host arranged for us to stay for a couple of nights with a semi-permanently based family about 10 or 15 km outside Ulaanbaatar. So we were driven to this family's ger, which was actually only about 50 metres from the main road that runs East out of U-B. It's in the Tuul Valley, so it's the main communications channel (the railway runs along the other side of the valley at that point). The tent was set up for us right next to the River Tuul (which is neither deep nor wide there), and we were introduced to our hosts in the country: Byamba and his wife (can't remember her name) and their 18-year old son. So we spent quite a lot of time that morning sitting in the ger, which was rather cold because its skirts were hitched up for ventilation and it wasn't really warm weather. We had mongolian milky tea (which I *always* love drinking - we make it at home sometimes), and bread with clotted cream and sugar (very nice).

47. Culture Greek columns of the opera and dance theatres to the bold copper mongolian roofof the Palace of culture – express the hybrid culture mongolia has forged http://danielroy.tripod.com/cgi-bin/alternate/mongolia/culture.html

Arts From prehistoric oral epics to the latest movie from MongolKino, the many arts of Mongolia convey the flavour of nomadic life. Watching dancers in a ger or a professional ensemble on the stage of a theatre in Ulaanbaatar is a reminder that Mongolia has evolved traditional and unique songs, music, dances, costumes, paintings styles, sculptures, plays, films, crafts, carpets and textiles. One surprise about Ulaanbaatar is the number, and quality, of cultural shows in the various theatres. The buildings themselves – from the salmon-pink walls with Greek columns of the opera and dance theatres to the bold copper Mongolian roof of the Palace of Culture – express the hybrid culture Mongolia has forged from all sides. Most Mongolians may be unable to afford to see their own circus and dance and opera troupes, but a major cultural renaissance is under way, as Mongolians rediscover what the Soviets had repressed. Music Modern. Young Mongolians in Ulaanbaatar can now watch videos of western music on satellite TV, but they also enjoy listening to local groups, which sing in the Mongolian language but have definite western influences. These include the soul vocal group Camerton; the heavy metal rockers, Niciton; and the sweet sounds of the popular female vocalist, Saraa. In summer, especially around Naadam, they often perform at the Palace of Culture. Most souvenir stores sell cassettes and compact discs of these, and other, Mongolian musicians. Traditional.

Home About Us Search Back to Mongolia Art in Mongolia Until the 20th century, Mongolia didn't have a united culture. Things changed when it became an independent nation, and with independence came attempts at preserving what relics of Mongolia's culture remain. The folklore of Mongolia has diminished with each generation, although a national culture has been attempted by the Republic of Mongolia. Some of the Republic's efforts include art schools, a state music and drama theater as well as the sponsoring of drama. In Ulaanbaatar, there are museums that house treasures from Mongolia's past. The State Central Museum has antiquities and art treasures, while the Fine Arts Museum has sculpture and paintings. Another museum, the Museum of Religion is comprised of Lamaist remnants.

The remaining ethnic Mongols live in China (Inner Mongolia) and Siberia in the so called Buryat Autonomous Republic to the east of Lake Baikal. In China and Russia most Mongols no longer live in gers and have become minorities in their own lands. Mongolian herdsmen of today share the same lifestyle as those their ancestors have practiced since time immemorial. The land use patterns date back at least to the time of the Huns and the period during which the Chinese started constructing the Great Wall in 200 BC. Their life revolving around their yurts (ger), livestock and the pastures. More than a quarter of the entire population are semi-nomadic herdsmen.

Mongolia CULTURE Mongolian Culture is unique and dissimilar to anywhere else on earth. It isn't so much individual parts that are fascinating but the combination of history, traditions and customs that makes Mongolia a truly special experience. Certainly the best place to experience culture is in the countryside where the nomadic herders have lived in much the same way for hundreds of years. People Archaeological finds suggest that primitive man appeared in what is now Mongolia 300,000 to 350,000 years ago and recent investigations suggest that Mongols take their origin from the Huns (or Huunu) who lived in Central Asian Countries many years ago. The term 'Mongol' only gained prominence in the early 13th Century with the emergence of the Mongolian ethnic unit and the formation of a single state. The word 'Mongol' has two suggested meanings. The first is a geographical name 'Mon gol' which means the river Mon. The second suggestion is that it should be pronounced 'Mun gol', interpreting 'Mun' as correct, basic or true and 'gol' as pivot, centre or essence. The combination would then be 'true essence'. The development of the present ethnic composition has gone through several historical stages. The formation and disintegration of numerous military tribal alliances of ancient nomads and their mass migrations over vast expanses of the Euro-Asian steppes, resulted in the emergence of the Mongolian Nationality which consists 86% of Khalkh-Mongol tribes. The population of Mongolia consists of twenty ethnic groups although their are few differences in language. Only the Kazakhs speak in their mother tongue. Kazakhs, Derbets, Buryats and other national minorities are concentrated where they have always lived.
