Pastoralists who live in the Tyva Republic approach their home landscapes as sentient and engage with them through a reciprocal relationship. The sociality of landscapes builds upon a multigenerational belonging amongst Tyva kinship groups with their homelands. In this study, I explore how community-homeland belonging allows for a more-than-human practice of engaging with the past-storying with homelands. I draw on a case study, which involves the construction of a Buddhist stupa by the Soyan kinship group at a site named Chylgy-Dash in 2019. I suggest that the community's storying with an endangered landscape aims, first, to bridge with the past across socialist decades when the state neglected human-nonhuman relationships, and, second, to enact and to story-into-being community-homeland belonging. Keywords: Indigenous historicities, more-than-human storytelling, memory politics, post-socialism, community-homeland belonging
