Gli Tsaatan, letteralmente uomini renna, sono nomadi sull’orlo dell’estinzione, fatalmente legati a tradizioni ancestrali. Sono ormai meno di duecento e sopravvivono in condizioni proibitive nel nord della Mongolia, al confine con la Siberia. Gli Tsaatan, che non sono mai entrati a contatto con la civiltà, sanno leggere e scrivere, e pongono l’istruzione al primo posto nella gerarchia dei valori sociali. Le renne sono il principale sostentamento (latte, carne, pelli) e anche per i bambini rappresenta l’unica occasione di svago: le cavalcano con consumata maestria lungo le vallate che si aprono intorno all’accampamento di urtz, le classiche tende. Gli Tsaatan mediano tradizioni mongole e turco-altaiche. Si affidano allo sciamano, venerano e temono gli spiriti del cielo e della terra e adottano antichi riti funebri. Questo volume narra del viaggio attraverso una terra aspra e sconfinata, la taiga, al fianco di uomini che custodiscono con commovente tenacia il valore della loro libertà.

在煙幕中看到一般人看不到的世界

第肆佰玖拾柒章 「在煙幕中看到一般人看不到的世界」 在他們族內當然有著地位崇高的巫師，他們住在掛滿獸骨獸皮的帳篷裡，燒著麋鹿的毛

今天的早餐是奢侈的雙蛋，為什麼奢侈？是因為游牧民族養羊養牛不養雞，雞不會乖乖的跟著牧民遷徙，所以雞肉跟雞蛋幾乎都是從中國或俄羅斯進口，然後再經過無數顛簸跟爆胎的過程，來到我們的餐桌。 「真是太珍貴的啊!」我看著這兩個蛋，捨不得吃，捧在手上好久好久。 經過昨天一晚的亂七八糟，我跟長谷川吃完早餐就軟爛的躺在蒙古包裡，好不容易打起精神，居然就聽見令人憤慨的聲音。 「好喔！下雨了是吧！」我咬牙切齒，看著忽明忽暗的天色，對著這個捉摸不定的天氣覺得無奈。這時候民宿老闆跟Bana進來了。 「我姨丈問你們，下雨天想做什麼?想去山上看麋鹿嗎?」Bana真是聰慧的孩子，對於掌握觀光客的期待非常精確。我們馬上在五分鐘之內就整裝完畢，等著老闆開著吉普車來接我們。 在蒙古庫蘇古勒湖附近，還留著少數的查坦族(Tsaatan)，蒙文的意思是「養鹿的人」。他們以游牧馴鹿為生，居極為簡單樸實，查坦族人飼養的麋鹿…

Tsaatan or Dukha people of Mongolia

Extreme north of Mongolia, resides a tribe called the Tsaatan, or the Dukha people. Tsaatan means people of the Reindeer. True to the name, their life revolves around their Reindeers. 

They say that if the Reindeer dies, so will their culture along with them. 

These nomads move around based on the season and are in tight-nit communities. The Reindeers serve the purpose of The families I met during my cultural expedition of the forgotten tribes of Mongolia, were quite skeptical about how much longer their culture will remain, as the younger generations are all moving out to the cities for a better 'settled' life. 

The kids, I envied them, for they had the whole Taiga as their home, their playground, their school and also their work. 

They would wade in the flowing stream by their tents, walk the Reindeers to the mountains, run behind the two dogs that they had, feed the young ones of the Reindeer, and then settle down by sunset in their cozy warm tents. 

Definitely a tough life, to keep moving from place to place, and now with the younger lot moving to the cities, looks like another culture on the brink of dying out. Now that more and more people want to go meet them, I hope that their culture stays and the tourism takes care of their daily needs and resources. A catch-22 situation though. 

Following are some flora and butterflies and critters that I came across in that region. By the way, you should see the last one.. the size of the mosquitoes there I tell you!!

“Un monde plus grand” se réfère autant au voyage réel qu’au voyage spirituel puisqu’il raconte de façon romancée l’arrivée de Corine Sombrun, à la base musicienne et musicologue, dans le chamanisme. Alors qu’elle est encore en plein deuil de son compagnon, Corine est envoyée en Mongolie pour enregistrer des sons en vue d’illustrer sonorement un documentaire. Elle assiste dans ce cadre à une cérémonie chamane et entre en transe au son du tambour chamanique. La chamane lui explique alors que si elle est entrée ainsi en transe, c’est parce qu’elle est elle aussi une chamane et qu’elle doit apprendre à utiliser son “don”. Après une période de rejet et de scepticisme, Corine finit par y voir une façon de régler son deuil et décide de retourner en Mongolie du nord, dans une tribu tsaatan, pour suivre une formation chamanique. Fabienne Berthaud édulcore quelque peu la vie de Corine Sombrun pour en faire un objet filmique. La partie deuil alourdit le propos sans doute mais donne un contexte à ce premier voyage en Mongolie et permet de lier expérience chamanique et destinée de Corine. Il y a ainsi des choix scénaristiques un peu trop cousus de fil blanc et pas forcément réels pour inciter de façon un peu trop évidente à une empathie avec le sujet. Il n’empêche que le destin extraordinaire de Corine est fascinant, que les paysages sont à couper le souffle et que Cécile de France est une belle interprète qui semble habitée par son personnage. Le film donne envie en tout cas d’en savoir plus sur le chamanisme, sur Corine et sur les recherches en neuropsychiatrie que ses transes ont permises.

🥰😭 LOOK AT THIS CUTE ASS SHIT YALL?!

More photos of Mongolia’s reindeer-herding minority ethnic group, the Tsaatan, by Joel Santos.

Children are responsible for training reindeer for riding, because the reindeer are not strong enough to carry an adult until they are fully grown, and it works best to introduce them to the idea early. A two year old reindeer, old enough for a child to ride, is called dongor; an adult reindeer is a hoodai.

Dukha people are a small community of Tuvan/Turkic reindeer herders living around Khövsgöl Aimag, Mongolia. Within the northern Mongolian snow forest, or taiga, the Dukha - whose population is estimated to be fewer than 300 - live as nomadic reindeer herders.

Often referred to as the Tsaatan in the Mongolian language, which literally means "reindeer people", the Dukha's lives are structured around their animals. They move between seasonal locations within the east and west taiga according to their herds' grazing needs and comfort.
