THE MONGOLIAN ALMAS: A HISTORICAL REEVALUATION OF THE SIGHTING BY BARADIIN
- Abstract:
- Research into the Almas, a supposed man-like creature of Mongolia and Central Asia, is said to have begun when Badzar Baradiin saw one while on an expedition to Tibet in 1906. The sighting was said to have been reported to Tsyben Zhamtsarano, who thereupon began a long-term research study of the Almas. Examination of Zhamtsarano's archive in Leningrad, and in particular of Baradiin's unpublished expedition diaries, casts doubt on the accuracy of this version of events.
