Among the great conqueror's admonitions is not to take a woman's words too seriously
Scientists have deciphered the manuscript of Genghis Khan, which is kept in the National Museum of the Altai Republic named after A. V. Anokhin. The manuscript of the "Key of Mind" sutra in the old-written Mongolian language dates back to the 13th-14th centuries. (Sutra is a laconic and fragmentary statement. - Approx. Auth.). This is one of the most ancient Mongolian manuscripts known to science.
According to the staff of the Gorno-Altai Museum, the manuscript is only fragments of a sutra, since many pages have been lost. According to scientists, the manuscript could be used for writing exercises - the pages contain the old Mongolian alphabet and copybooks.
The text itself is supposedly written by three people. For example, the handwriting of one of them is beautiful. Scholars think that it was written by a teacher or already a skilled scribe. The other two handwritings give away newbies. The text was written with bamboo sticks and a brush in classical Mongolian writing from top to bottom, the lines were arranged from left to right.
The message of Genghis Khan was deciphered by a student of the German University Herlen Bold within the framework of a scientific dissertation under the guidance of Irina Nevskaya, chief research officer of the Institute of Philology of the SB RAS.
It is assumed that the sutra was passed on orally in the form of teachings and instructions when raising children. It was originally drawn up by the conqueror himself. Passing from mouth to mouth, the message of the commander has changed a lot.
