Tamsabulag

Tamsagbulag lies beside a spring west of Lake Buir, on a high bank above an old watercourse. Long before the Mongol empires, people built substantial semi-subterranean houses here and left stone tools, animal bones and burials. Their remains show a community that used the eastern steppe and its resources thousands of years ago. The spring gave the place its name, while the ancient dwellings stand out among the traces of early life on the Mongolian plateau.
