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. I’m glad that there are more people have true story about him -than fake one. I’m Mongolian but this doesn’t make me to glorify chingis, I just want truth to be ‘untouched’.

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.

Let's be honest. The Great Khan was the original Chad. He outwitted his enemies as a child. He united a group of tribes who hated their kin as much as their enemies. 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.

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.

[@killeralltires]

BTW Mongols always knew where IKH Chinggis Khaan is buried even the Mongolian Ceremonial Guard have special military ceremonies to respect him.Yes it is in Burkhan Khaldun in Khentii Aimag .His grave is very similar to the Chinese emperor grave sites in Xian.He wanted his to be similar. In Mongolia nobody wants the tomb to be disturbed in any which way.On the burial mound there is 5 tamgas of descendants of the great Khan that also became khans they were also buried with him but at later dates.

I’d love to see Thoughty2 do a video on anti-bald remedies of the past and how they were all bunk. Hint hint keeps...

[@carneeki]

Such a video would likely happen to be sponsored by Square Space, Dashlane or Brilliant

[@andoletube]

True. At least Thoughty2 has the sense not to trial the product on his own team. Freddie (Tavarish) is doing the same ads and he's using the product himself, and pretending that he's growing his hair back. He even puffs his hair up and uses concealer for those promos. Only problem is there are all these videos on his 2nd channel where he works on cars and they film his head and his baldness is exactly the same as when he started. Keeps is a scam, no doubt about it.

Why would Genghis Khan need to take anything with him to the afterlife? He would just conquer that as well.

[@cameronpendexter9492]

And that he did, he also met Tom Brady and tried to make a deal with him. Didn't work out well.

Great video, I was in Mongolia in April 2014 and have been to the top of that huge silver monument, amazing, though @8:17 of this video is not Genghis Khan but of Damdin Sukhbaatar known as the Father of the Mongolian Revolution in 1921, hundreds of years after Khan ruled.

[@drew-shourd]

Also may I add, the people of Mongolia do not support the looking for this grave, they are very superstitious, it is the greedy politicians that SELL for big money, the rights to search for the grave, among other horrific tragedies, like strip mining the entire country practically.

Over recent years, we've found out there are truly some despicable people walking this earth. But I'm confident they'd never stoop so low as to put pineapple on a pizza. How this even got started as a rumor is beyond me. So depraved.

[@rockk9753]

Putting pineapple on pizza is one of the most deranged things people have ever done only a sick twisted individual could have come up with that

[@robo08ify]

Supposedly pineapple on pizza is very popular in Australia. I also read that the person who invented it was a Greek immigrant living in Ottawa.

there is also the fact that the mongolian people revere him so much that even to this day fanatics still hold true to his desire of keeping his resting place hidden that they would even kill to prevent its discovery.

[@anishbiswas7509]

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

I always wondered where the name "Ghengis" came from. As you stated, he was named "Chingus."

[@apollonnike]

Actually, Ghengis Khan was claimed to be Turk by himself and always used Turkish in govermental and daily (when their writings translated to Latin it turned out to be Turkish). And it's written "Cengiz Han" in Turkish and his real name is "Timuçin". I am not a historian tho and as far as I know this is a topic disscussed a lot. So don't come at me please guys.

[@displacerkatsidhe]

There's also a strong chance he doesn't have a burial in that sense. Some studies show cultures of the area may have also practiced sky burial.

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. 🇨🇦🍍🍕🤤

[@Ariioch]

It's not the food they think its weird it's the people who eat it and this comment isn't helping shift that narrative. Coulda just said "I like pineapple on pizza" like the rest of us and moved on but no you had to write an essay ...

[@sludgiebear]

Where ever Genghis Khan lays, and what ever illuminations may be set alongside him, he has certainly kept his resting place. It would be interesting to know where his wives were buried, but I imagine their sites hold no reflection of where he resides. Side thought: imagine, just for a second, being so so influential in your life - and in your death - that people still talk about you hundreds of years later. I feel that being remembered is the desire of everyone, and he certainly achieved that. In some way, he became immortal. Isn't it something crazy like 1 in 5 people alive today are a distant relative of his? I may be incorrect, but I remember it being a lot.

[@Pro_Butcher_Amateur_Human]

Imagine you went to that funeral. You cry during the burial. Afterwards, you're mingling with the other mourners, reminiscing about Genghis, sampling the our d'oeuvres, drinking a little wine, and then people start coming round asking whether you'd prefer beheading, poison, or if you'd prefer to kill yourself. It's surely impossible to kill every attendee. Surely before you get down to the last 2 survivors, the temptation to just leave and live another day would only grow.

[@muldersrevenge2325]

Thoughty, definitely NOT talking about the people at funerals he's attended. No one at all.
