This is a review of one of the most significant academic events in Tuva in the year 2016 – 5th international Aranchyn Readings, which took place in Kyzyl on September 14, 2016. This research conference has been held by Tuva Institute for Humanities and Applied Socioeconomic Studies (TIGPI) in collaboration with the Yu.L. Aranchyn Foundation since 2007. It honors the memory of Yurii Luduzhapovich Aranchyn (1926-1997), Doctor of history, prominent Tuvan scholar, statesman and public person.
