World Heritage Scanned Nomination File Name: 1081rev.pdf UNESCO Region: ASIA AND THE PACIFIC __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 7th July 2004 STATE PARTY: MONGOLIA CRITERIA: C (ii) (iii) (iv) CL DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 28th Session of the World Heritage Committee Criterion (ii): The Orkhon valley clearly demonstrates how a strong and persistent nomadic culture, led to the development of extensive trade networks and the creation of large administrative, commercial, military and religious centres. The empires that these urban centres supported undoubtedly influenced societies across Asia and into Europe and in turn absorbed influence from both east and west in a true interchange of human values. Criterion (iii): Underpinning all the development within the Orkhon valley for the past two millennia has been a strong culture of nomadic pastoralism. This culture is still a revered and indeed central part of Mongolian society and is highly respected as a ‘noble’ way to live in harmony with the landscape. Criterion (iv): The Orkhon valley is an outstanding example of a valley that illustrates several significant stages in human history. First and foremost it was the centre of the Mongolian Empire; secondly it reflects a particular Mongolian variation of Turkish power; thirdly, the Tuvkhun hermitage monastery was the setting for the development of a Mongolian form of Buddhism; and fourthly, Khar Balgas, reflects the Uighur urban culture in the capital of the Uighur Empire. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS The 121,967-ha Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape encompasses an extensive area of pastureland on both banks of the Orkhon River and includes numerous archaeological remains dating back to the 6th century. The site also includes Kharkhorum, the 13th and 14th century capital of Chinggis (Genghis) Khan’s vast Empire. Collectively the remains in the site reflect the symbiotic links between nomadic, pastoral societies and their administrative and religious centres, and the importance of the Orkhon valley in the history of central Asia. The grassland is still grazed by Mongolian nomadic pastoralists. 1.b State, Province or Region: Orkhon-Kharkorin Region 1.d Exact location: N47 33 24 E102 49 53 Mongolian National Commission for UNESCO National Committee for World Heritage Ministry of Science, Technology, Education and Culture ORKHON VALLEY CULTURAL LANDSCAPE SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN August 2002 Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape Management Plan Table of Contents 1 BACKGROUND ..........................................................................................................3 1.1 PREPARATION OF THE SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN............................................................3 1.2 TERMINOLOGY................................................................................................................4 2 DESCRIPTION AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SITE .........................................7 2.1 GEOLOGICAL AND TOPOGRAPHICAL IDENTIFICATIONS OF THE AREA...............................7 2.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE CULTURAL LANDSCAPE ................................................................7 3 KEY ISSUES FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF THE ORKHON VALLEY HERITAGE SITE......................................................................................................21 3.1 PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION ISSUES ....................................................................21 3.2 RESEARCH ....................................................................................................................33 3.3 EDUCATION AND TRAINING ..........................................................................................34 3.4 PUBLICITY AND INTERPRETATION FOR VISITORS ..........................................................34 3.5 UTILIZATION OF THE HERITAGE SITE............................................................................35 3.6 FINANCIAL SOURCES FOR PRESERVATION, PROTECTION AND RECONSTRUCTION ...........42 4 PLAN OF ACTION...................................................................................................44 4.1 IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN ...................................................44 4.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE MANAGEMENT PLAN.....................................................................47 4.3 MONITORING OF THE SITE.............................................................................................47 4.4 LONG-TERM PLAN .........................................................................................................48 4.5 MEDIUM-TERM PLAN ....................................................................................................50 5 LEGAL TEXTS.........................................................................................................60 5.1 GOVERNMENT RESOLUTIONS........................................................................................60 6 MAPS AND ILLUSTRATIONS................ERROR!

The management issues and strategies incorporated into the present Site Management Plan were mainly identified during a process of special consultations held in late 2001 and early 2002, during the course of which discussions were held with representatives from the following groups and organisations: • Ministry of Science, Technology, Education and Culture • Mongolian National Commission for UNESCO • Minstry of Infrastructure Development • Övörkhangai Aimag Governor’s Office • Kharkhorin Municipal Governor’s Office • Ministry of the Environment • Foundation for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage • Soum Governors • Ministry of Food and Agriculture • National Commitee for Cultural Heritage • History Institute, Mongolian Academy of Sciences • Administration, staff and students of Khar Khorum University • Local residents in the Orkhon Valley • Lamas at Erdene Zuu Monastery • Administration of Erdene Zuu Monastery Museum • Lamas at Tövkhen Hermitage Monastery A significant part of this consultative work was conducted as part of a 3-day conference entitled 'Management of World Heritage: The Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape', held in Kharkhorin in March 2002, in which more than 60 official delegates and 400 private stakeholders participated. In addition, a three-member expert team conducted a detailed field survey of the Orkhon Valley, assessing its present state of conservation and preservation, and meeting with local administrators and residents. The results of these consultations and field research activities have been directly reflected in the

    Buddhist Archeology in Mongolia: Zanabazar and the Géluk Diaspora Beyond Tibet

    Buddhist Archeology in Mongolia: Zanabazar and the Géluk Diaspora beyond Tibet Uranchimeg Tsultemin, Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) Uranchimeg, Tsultemin. 2019. “Buddhist Archeology in Mongolia: Zanabazar and the Géluk Dias- pora beyond Tibet.” Cross-Currents: East Asian History and Culture Review (e-journal) 31: 7–32. https://cross-currents.berkeley.edu/e-journal/issue-31/uranchimeg. Abstract This article discusses a Khalkha reincarnate ruler, the First Jebtsundampa Zanabazar, who is commonly believed to be a Géluk protagonist whose alliance with the Dalai and Panchen Lamas was crucial to the dissemination of Buddhism in Khalkha Mongolia. Za- nabazar’s Géluk affiliation, however, is a later Qing-Géluk construct to divert the initial Khalkha vision of him as a reincarnation of the Jonang historian Tāranātha (1575–1634). Whereas several scholars have discussed the political significance of Zanabazar’s rein- carnation based only on textual sources, this article takes an interdisciplinary approach to discuss, in addition to textual sources, visual records that include Zanabazar’s por- traits and current findings from an ongoing excavation of Zanabazar’s Saridag Monas- tery. Clay sculptures and Zanabazar’s own writings, heretofore little studied, suggest that Zanabazar’s open approach to sectarian affiliations and his vision, akin to Tsongkhapa’s, were inclusive of several traditions rather than being limited to a single one. Keywords: Zanabazar, Géluk school, Fifth Dalai Lama, Jebtsundampa, Khalkha, Mongo- lia, Dzungar Galdan Boshogtu, Saridag Monastery, archeology, excavation The First Jebtsundampa Zanabazar (1635–1723) was the most important protagonist in the later dissemination of Buddhism in Mongolia.

    Zanabazar (1635-1723): Vajrayāna Art and the State in Medieval Mongolia Uranchimeg Tsultem ___________________________________________________________________________________ This is the author’s manuscript of the article published in the final edited form as: Tsultem, U. (2015). Zanabazar (1635–1723): Vajrayāna Art and the State in Medieval Mongolia. In Buddhism in Mongolian History, Culture, and Society (pp. 116–136). Introduction The First Jebtsundamba Khutukhtu (T. rJe btsun dam pa sprul sku) Öndör Gegeen Zanabazar is the most celebrated person in the history of Mongolian Buddhism, whose activities marked the important moments in the Mongolian politics, history, and cultural life, as they heralded the new era for the Mongols. His masterpieces of Buddhist sculptures exhibit a sophisticated accomplishment of the Buddhist iconometrical canon, a craftsmanship of the highest quality, and a refined, yet unfettered virtuosity. Zanabazar is believed to have single-handedly brought the tradition of Vajrayāna Buddhism to the late medieval Mongolia. Buddhist rituals, texts, temple construction, Buddhist art, and even designs for Mongolian monastic robes are all attributed to his genius. He also introduced to Mongolia the artistic forms of Buddhist deities, such as the Five Tath›gatas, Maitreya, Twenty-One T›r›s, Vajradhara, Vajrasattva, and others. They constitute a salient hallmark of his careful selection of the deities, their forms, and their representation. These deities and their forms of representation were unique to Zanabazar. Zanabazar is also accredited with building his main Buddhist settlement Urga (Örgöö), a mobile camp that was to reach out the nomadic communities in various areas of Mongolia and spread Buddhism among them. In the course of time, Urga was strategically developed into the main Khalkha monastery, Ikh Khüree, while maintaining its mobility until 1855.
