Tavan Tolgoi

Tavan Tolgoi, the Five Hills, stands on the eastern Mongolian steppe. The burial ground here contains richly furnished graves dating to the era of the Mongol Empire. One woman was buried with gold rings bearing a falcon design; another grave held a man, a horse and a gilded saddle. The finds point to people of high rank, though their precise relationship to Chinggis Khan's family remains a subject of investigation.
