Ulaanbaatar, August 2, 2023 /MONTSAME/. The special exhibition titled "Mongolian Shamanism, Healing, and Traditional Medicine" was opened on August 1, 2023, at the National Museum of Mongolia. The exhibition is jointly organized by the National Museum of Mongolia, the Mongolia and Inner Asia Studies Unit of the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of Cambridge, and the Museum of Mongolian Traditional Medicine.
The exhibition "Mongolian Shamanism, Healing, and Traditional Medicine" is presented to the public as part of the research project "Traditional Medicine in Different Regions," conducted by scientists and researchers from Mongolia and the Inner Asia Studies Unit of the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of Cambridge.
The exhibition aims to contrast the shamanic healing with medical traditions that have existed among nomads for centuries and present the results of an ethnographic study focused on cultural differences and common heritage.
"Mongolian Shamanism, Healing, and Traditional Medicine" is on display until September 1, 2023.
