The Late Professor Owen Lattimore was a prominent scholar of Mongolia, and he was one of the first Westerners (Americans) who was fluent in Mongolian (Khalkha dialect) language. This documentary is a very nice work of a scholar who had huge affinity for Mongolia, Mongolian people, and Mongolian history and culture! This is the so-called objective reporting of what is there without any ideological and personal biases! This documentary should serve a textbook for modern students of anthropology, ethnography, history of Eurasia and documentary specialists! Bravo!

I flew to Mongolia in the early 80’s. A lot of Korean business men are there. The city made me feel of 1950’s. The country is beautiful. Slept in a 🛖 yurt, rode horse and ate Yack.
Whenever I'd watched the Opening Ceremonies of the Summer Olympics as a child my favorite part was when the Mongolian Olympic Team marched into the stadium. The athlete holding the flag would always be this HUGE Mongolian man who was dressed in only a loin cloth, a cape, and a Mongolian cap. And best of all, the flag bearer would always hold a gigantic Mongolian Flag and pole in one hand! I always thought it was incredible!
That flag holders were champions of mongolian national wrestlings..The giant man you are talking about is champion Bayanmunk who has won the national wrestlung chamiponship i many times. By the way, that champion and his spouse .is still alive and living very happy life with their offsprings nowadays, i mean by december 2021.
It is Mongolian long song. As a Mongol, I like to listen long songs now than my young age. Long song came down to us from our ancient ancestors " Hunnu".
Being Navajo (southern athabaskan) i am amazed of how similar our cultures are. Strongly believe there are some strong ancestry between my tribe and the nomadic Mongolians.
Dine teh' bil-bei-hozendoh', Navajo; Nah-bah hii' (warriors), So too are Mongolians, the fierce warriors. Invokes deep thoughts not many care to ponder of. Yah-tey Dine' tah doh'! Ke'bii-toh'/Le'chii'
Interesting time and place image of Mongolia. The lack of happiness, but sincere people, probably sometimes aware of the camera, mix of historie and human soul. How is it today?
social consciousness is evident, in the eastern Europa the speculators drove the narrative. Former Yugoslavia had some successes with "zadruga" but after 1965 thing went south.
The transfer quality of the film is good except that the image is being stretched into widescreen format. Please, display it in its native aspect ratio.
I Enjoyed This! Amazing how the Rich always come to enrich themselves while the Citizens are left with the least! So Much for Change! Strange! It will continue!
I read that singing in their traditional way (khoomei) was discouraged as it was deemed "too wild", hence the more operatic choral "nationalistic" singing style shown here.
I have been in Mongolia every year from 2015 to 2019. Altogether more than a half year. Mostly stayed with Nomads. Not to describe! You need to feel! Wonderful! Go as soon as you can. When is the best time? Always now🤗
@@hugoaldus9845 You are very lucky sir to have an opportunity to live close to this wonderful people, typical and simple life i hope they sustain thier culture in future
First of all, it's not a regular metal. The medal is given by an honor of what he has achieved through his training and war experience. Secondly, these guys are not just an officer. Proly, one the higher ranking soldiers. I know you know this
As the level of the sea rose and fell, the land bridge at the Bering straight has come and gone many times in the last 100K years. During the times the land bridge was open, many peoples have migrated across it to North America. The last group to migrate across the land bridge was the Athabascan people. They look almost like the modern Korean people. I don't know when they migrated across the land bridge, but one Athabascan group, the Dine [Navajo for "the people"] arrived in Northeastern Arizona less than 400 years ago. It is well documented that the early Spanish explorers found only the Hopi and the Apache in that area. The Anasazi departed hundreds of years before, and the Navajo had not yet arrived. The Anasazi left because of a drought, and because the volvano at Sunset Crater erupted. The land was mostly empty until the Dine arrived. They found the Colorodo Plateau to their liking, and they stayed.
The mngilan are stepping people, very much like the aboriginal Indian f the America. Unfortunately their faith are so different under the Anglo people's hand.
Did Dr. Lattimore show such sympathy to communism because he had to in order to get into Mongolia, or did he truly believe the glowing report he gave of communism in Mongolia?
Not a well done documentary. The narrator/commentator didn’t contribute information to the video. My hope was to learn about the Mongolian political structure and the Mongolian people. For example, there was a round up of horses but no narrative about what they were doing. Ultimately I didn’t learn as much as I would have liked.

Rest In Peace great person, We appreciate for his brilliant effort.

Not sure why I choose documentaries from this part of Earth, when I have a migraine, I love when they sing, just not so much a a migraine
Those kids out there are fantastic.

This is an old video. The Mongols gave up socialism as a failed system 30 years ago.
Really nice program. Very well studied.
That was interesting to watch
Very nice documentary

Tibet and laddak ,India 2nd Mongolia same horse here same Bactrian camle here also and same steeped both in India and tibet
great!
Thank you.
How can any sane person give "Thumb Down" to a documentary about the life of other people ???
Because it’s a pro communist rant.
Because, one of the camel here gave me a stink eye 👹
Are they still living like that nowadays?
yes 30 percent of mogolia's population are nomadic
Wow! what a tough life
Many of them yes.

What's the song at 28:30?
حياة الحبو تحت حفر الشعاب والجبال
يا لها من حياة لا أجد لها مفردات معبرة في قاموس المد والجزر للمعناة لهذا الشعب
That's a beautiful comment! May Allah bless you and your family.
I need to know what the song at 28:51 is called!!!!

When did they use the Alueation Islands to cross to America to become American Indians ?

Did he had to kick the horse 😢
The mngilan are stepping people, very much like the aboriginal Indian f the America. Unfortunately their faith are so different under the Anglo people's hand.

starting with man talking... put me off
That sound track sucked.... Sounded like a bunch of screeching and moaning... Horrible.
