Abstract

Having critically analyzed the theories of Buryat scientists B.R.Zoriktuyev, S.Sh.Chagdurov, P.B.Konovalov about the location of legendary ancestral homeland of "all Mongols” Ergune-Khun, the author of the article makes a conclusion that concerned place has not been on the territory of Manchuria (Argun version of Zoriktuyev) or Western Buryatia (Chagdurov, Konovalov) but on the territory of Uryankhay (modern Tuva).
