Discerning social interaction and cultural influence in Early Iron Age Mongolia through archaeometallurgical investigation
The warriors of the steppes: Osteological evidence of warfare and violence from Pazyryk tumuli in the Mongolian Altai
Inhumation and cremation in medieval Mongolia: Analysis and Analogy
The authors study burials of the medieval period in western Mongolia shortly before emergence of Genghis Khan. They find that both inhumation and cremation are practised, with a variety of accompanying rituals. Systematic micro-analysis of bone fragments on the one hand, and the accounts of early travellers on the other, allow these researchers to propose detailed explanations of mortuary practice in thirteenth century Altai that will be highly s…
The man, the woman and the hyoid bone: From archaeology to the burial practices of the Xiongnu people (Egyin Gol valley, Mongolia)
A man and a woman were found in a double burial dating from the 1st century BC and located in a Xiongnu burial site in northern Mongolia. An offering box at the head of the man's coffin contained both remains of domestic animals and a human hyoid bone. The skeleton of the man was complete whereas the woman's hyoid bone was missing. The isolated hyoid bone could belong to the buried woman, which suggests the removal of her tongue and probably her …
Pratiques funéraires et sacrifices d'animaux en Mongolie à la période proto-historique. Du perçu au signifié. A propos d'une sépulture Xiongnu de la vallée d'Egyin Gol (Région péri-Baïkal)
Etude d'un kourgane du IIe siècle de notre ère, situé au nord de la Mongolie. Au fond de la fosse, une chambre funéraire en bois contient un cercueil, qui a livré les restes d'un homme jeune, s'intégrant parfaitement dans la variabilité mongoloïde, auquel étaient associés sept pointes de flèches et les restes d'un arc. A côté de la chambre funéraire, les restes d'un autre coffre, contenant deux baguettes en os, ont été mis au jour. Au fond de la …
Funeral practices and animal sacrifices in Mongolia at the Uigur period: Archaeological and ethno-historical study of akurganin the Egyin Gol valley (Baikal region)
The nomadic peoples of central Eurasia are famous for their elaborate burial customs - both as those are known ethnohistorically and evident in the frozen tombs of Pazyryk. The Mongolian chambered grave reported here is of the 9th century AD. To that era the ethnohistorical record may have relevance in inferring its ceremony, alongside a considered knowledge in experimental spirit of just what must have taken place at the grave in order to create…
One Traveler Among Many
The Silk Road that crosses Mongolia is unique in that it is the most northerly of all, skirting Siberia. Some authors call it the Altai Road, because it crosses the immense Altai mountain range which begins in western Mongolia and whose peaks, snow-covered and icy year round, rise more than five thousand meters above sea level. The official name of this fourth expedition of the Silk Roads project, which took place between 10 July and 5 August 199…
