I am Mongolian and came across numerous archeological sites whenever I travel to the countryside. Once an archeologist told me it is easy to locate graves as they have stone indications on the surface but the majority of the graves are empty because it was tradition for enemies to dig each other's ancestors graves as a sign of humiliation and disrespect. Most of the graves were dug up and emptied hundreds of years ago. Since Mongolian empire always consisted of tribes perhaps that is why he wanted to hide his grave.

It’s surprising that people do have good side of Chingis. Actually his life was very humble and simple. Only role of ruler made him look like a tough one or bad. But as an orphan he devoted to his family and his land, stood against all odds, yet, he just did everything he had to, nothing extraordinary, but later on his reputations grew bigger but he was still temujin.

And conquered an empire that relatively exceeded any ever. More importantly, 15% of Asian, and a lesser, but significant percent of European males carry his DNA. Most importantly, when he died he said "FU let me rest in peace". That is a life the most based today can only fantasize.

[@FionaOfMountLawley]

I have a thought why it's unlocatable. Let's set aside the essentially mythological stuff like the notion that everyone associated with the funerary procession was killed so that no living person remained who knew where he was interred. It may simply be explained by no part of his body now existing, nor having existed for centuries. With in ground interments, depending on soil chemistry, no discernible trace of a person may remain after as little as 30 years. He died almost 800 years ago. He mouldered and there isn't so much as bones or teeth left.

[@lilitharam44]

If he truly had 2,000 people plus soldiers killed after his funeral, then they should be looking for mass graves. That would point them in the right direction, since that's far too many bodies to move and where they were killed is probably where they were buried. They probably didn't travel too far from his tomb before being killed, so his grave would be within proximity to the mass grave.

[@Complete.cyclepath]

Very good idea

If they really put that much effort into that slaughter plan, do you truly think that they wouldn't have moved each body to a different location? The mongols weren't stupid, and they clearly had the man power and resources to do so.

I'd love to know why Alexander the Great's tomb hasn't been discovered either.

[@KarlJayce]

There's no tomb. And if there was it has Sunk ages ago beneath the waves.

[@WildWombats]

@@KarlJayce Uh, I'm gonna need evidence to back that up. As we have multiple accounts of people visiting Alexander The Great's tomb site up to 390 AD. From 323 BC to 390 AD. That's over 600 years of recorded history where people throughout the times record visiting it. There is a theory it was destroyed after Christianity took over to prevent worship of anyone who may be deemed as a god, since the last recorded mention was in 390 AD. There is another theory his tomb was moved to a Catholic Church after Christianity took over, as Paganism generally wasn't tolerated from a monotheistic religion. Unless you just mean that it's probably been destroyed by now, it definitely did exist, the mystery is just finding it, or at least the remains of it.

People say pineapple pizza is an abomination, but have they ever tried it? People do cook him with pineapple, putting it on pizza isn't that weird. As a Canadian I feel annoyed when non-Canadians nsult the food. It's better than some of the weird food Americans eat, I think American processed cheese as an abomination and putting it in a can is even weirder. 🇨🇦🍍🍕🤤

Love your series. Always look forward to it. One fact correction however. Genghis Khan never conquered India during his lifetme. He could have if he wanted to. Atleast a good part of northern India. Later successor of the Mongols, a branched out family of the great Khan, ruled over the subcontinent as the "Mughals". The Mughals however, identified themselves as "hindustani" (Indian" in ancient sense) with their roots in far away Samarkand. This additional link might help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3-ciZqti62pgZY

So here's a thought. If all the witnesses were slaughtered, why aren't they looking in places where lots of bodies are buried? Even if it's mass graves? I don't think he was buried. Prolly a funeral pyre and long ass drawn out story. Coz if all the witnesses were killed, how did anyone find out?

Lot of effort and reverence for a murderous monster of history, but I suppose this sick world wouldn't be quite right if the greatest of them all was left lost to history. Interesting stuff, thanks for the vid.

[@thedemonking0013]

History often paints him as the worse of all.But in truth he was just one of the most successful. There have been countless terrible people in history. In his rise to power he was against a lot of other cheifs who were either equally as bad if not worse. In the end many did willingly choose to follow him and only him. If you look at the Mongols before him it was just a bunch of warring tribes that sometimes got along and had loose alliances. One reval chief was his main competition. That chief would have people boiled alive which was seen as a taboo or a violation so he lost favor with most people. Khan was no doubt was cold but by far worse monsters have existed it just happens Khan built a lasting empire that had an effect that is felt to this day. His reverence was so great but it's not because he was a murdrous psychopath if that was the case he would be remembers more like Vlad the impalor. There are two sides to his story. The world outside often chooses to focus on the part stained in blood. His actions shaped the world as a whole.
