Shamanism (Darkhad, Mongolia, 2009)

The Tsaatan people living in the northern taiga of Mongolia are known as among the most powerful shamans in the country. Shamanism has rooted in Mongolian tradition far before the arrival of religions, and is still significant in the people’s life until today.

Dukun (Darkhad, Mongolia, 2009)

Bangsa Tsaatan yang tinggal di hutan-hutan taiga di Mongolia utara dikenal sebagai dukun terkuat di negara itu. Shamanisme, atau perdukunan, telah mengakar kuat dalam tradisi bangsa Mongol jauh sebelum datangnya agama-agama, dan masih punya peran signifikan dalam kehidupan masyarakat Mongol hingga hari ini.
