lived here long ago were nomads they came up with an alternative form of music called throat singing which imitates the sounds of nature. the most common style is cool so many. scientists say tyrannies are among siberia's most ancient peoples their ancestors are believed to have settled there thirty thousand years ago. that the good. a good ending sean cook a u.s. citizen drives an old soviet car the key nicknamed it the russian tank for its reliability both on and off road sean originally came to t.v. eight years ago to study the local phenomenon of threads he ended up staying in

elizabeth shares the same room with a t.v. one sister anita who is thirteen years old they were behaving like real sisters having real arguments sometimes what's the dishes known today you. i wish yeah i wish. where everyone me know where you ira were and they're well and if i have to wash the dishes then you wash the floor here it's girls come here to have some tea. every evening the family gets together over a cup of tea for elizabeth before only drink coffee became a new favorite tradition this is my given family who i live with into my mom are. my. two revolver my little brother. very important and my thirteen year old sister anita i also have

a similar family in australia mother father of course older sister and my brother is the same age as me here. tonight's tea party is all about elizabeth's expedition the next morning she will set out on a trip where she hopes to take in the picturesque scenery of t.v.'s west and meet musicians who share her interest in throat singing the family gives us some advice . because ill is a young city no more than one hundred years old but there are ancient burial sites dotted all around it here the people are able to draw on some unknown force the locals believe this energy comes from the fact the two rivers meet the mali n.s.a. and the bolshoi n.s.a. come together to form the great yenisei one of siberia's biggest waterways teevan is have many legends about it. the mistress of the river is a beautiful young lady who rides a white horse made of water. we want to make

a sculpture in her image. so that we can honor our great provider the n.s.a. admitted that it. cause it all but chill day is head of the tube an institute of humanitarian research today he's walking towards an image of t.v. in hunters in search of prey captured by an ancient artist thousands of years ago scientists have found such stone petroglyphs all across t.v. especially around its capital. this is kills the oldest historical landmark through its seven or eight thousand years old. the important thing about it is the picture of hunters featuring deer and go. there are more than four hundred such stone mice in killer loan him. several kilometers from kill lies and a back valley the old river bed of the n.s.a.

is nearby. archeologists are excavating a burial mound on top of a high hill they have found many graves dating back to the bronze age those graves belonged to a simple people that most of the. excavation work has revealed structures with sophisticated geometry and very interesting burial techniques. some of the elements could be described in modern architectural terms such as arches bracing and masonry and. all of them are a very good quality but the. scientists say the burial ground was unsealed many years ago it may have been done to make room for a new site wasn't i didn't go most burials and mounds and have been pillaged either in ancient times or by successive generations of impoverished people. they've dug them up to try and get to the valuables. all the musicians of tivo hold this

workshop and cause ill in high regard. longs to al dar tom de and he has descended from a renowned family of craftsman to make folk music instruments and he sings to. today the craftsman are busy with making and he killed the gil is one of t.v.'s oldest instruments trees that grow in the republik they used to produce it therefore to be filled with the spirit of the land. it's just another you have to mark it with a pencil to make it right on the. any kind of musical instrument can be made here also if it doesn't exist it can be invented right here in this workshop all you need is a tree and some creativity. which birch pine

it doesn't matter. anything will do when you're making a deal. the secret is that we aren't bound by any rules we don't care about standards but the instruments they're works of art. the people of tiva have a distinct legend for each musical instrument this one is called a child a gun. a wife of a local respected man made this instrument after he threw her onto the street. she stretched out of all guts and tendons over a washed up their instruments for hunters and shepherds. but this one suits home made music best of all. the valley forty kilometers east of kill is popular with local shepherds here they often host musicians trying to recreate a horseback band the kind that existed in the t.v. in people's republic in the early twentieth century.

ok let's try to approach the horses. do it carefully. the shepherds have picked horses for the musicians but the animals still aren't used to the noise produced by the band. even if horses hoping to train beforehand when they spend too many months on a pasture they become out of touch with humans once the musicians lassoo the horses the next thing to do is to introduce them to musical sounds gently at first good. good boy well done. he remember. to me. it takes the horses half an hour to get used to the sound produced by the band. it's difficult to ride a horse and play a musical instrument at the same time and there's a problem also with breeding and of course the horse can throw you on the ground

but today everything actually seems to be ok. on two three four. as the musicians ride out of the enclosure the drum beat echoes throughout the valley. while this is a great year for the time being sure his family lives in the year a drilling made of thick felt is the kind used by nomads his wife used to live here before meeting her future husband said larner says sean has changed his family's eating habits american cuisine now holds pride of place in this stephen dwelling. my husband has introduced traditional american food notably spicy chili.

sean quirk as an amateur builder he hammers nails and plasters walls he's very excited to move from his small jerked to a bigger building where there's more space for the kids he jokingly calls it the house that sean built well we have here is the work we call it and the russian dream we've got a nice little log house made of siberia large which is going to be. stand for centuries and doesn't rot doesn't go anywhere well we're done with there's a little while. russian home to stay in the winter now we have over here. next door to the. russian dream we have a place we call the tube and dream this is a year two which is a very high technology developed over thousands of years by the tube another nomadic people for developing and climate and this year it's about fifty years old

and it was given to me by my father in law right now it just looks like a pile of wood a trailer some boards but this is going to be where we have the the russo. needs to finish building his house to full the onset of winter so he's put up the walls and set the window frames.

defy isolation and prejudice. to fight aging. take a risk. do it with passion. learn to fly. jump to the top. ignore the pain. stage a show. fifty kilometers west of kids ill the great yenisei makes its way past mountains in the eighth century b.c. we get troops used to have an observation post high up the cliffs nothing but a pile of flattened books is left now elizabeth will take pictures during her

expedition and send them back to australia. the east and saw if you can see things dozens of kilometers away from under it's easy to spot anything settling down the n.s.a. river. strain in research elizabeth going to and other members of the expedition reached a remote shepherd county in t.v. is west. among the guests this time our. is a blitz friends from a group of singers called the daughters of t.v. high. hello nice to meet you. the hostess superior by lack is a legend in these parts among other things she is the last surviving soldier from the t.v. people's army that fought in world war two in accordance with local tradition the inhabitants of a shepherd camp treat visitors to tea and chat with them nomads always treasure a contact with visitors as it is their way of hearing the news. club's go to granny

would like to give you a present by singing a traditional to one song for you. the . thing about the daughters of tea work is that the young women use their throop singing technique during their performances they also play traditional instruments. working i have lived here in this valley since i was a child to former so very rare visitors here i'm happy to have you here it's a great present for someone as old as me it makes me very happy. translated from the t.v. in language this mountain towering over the shepherd camp is called mount heavenly

bear several years ago the dalai lama came here he declared that the mountain is a sacred symbol for the entire buddhist world. elizabeth is marvels by the landscape she sees here scenery here is very different to anything that i have ever seen before and over many people think that it is a very barren and very stark environment here i think i think the stock in this all . it is actually very very beautiful. here still a buddhist temple is the final destination on the torah teaches west. for many years the complex of monasteries was regarded as a vivid example of buddhist construction in the region. the temple was destroyed in one nine hundred thirty seven the height of a soviet campaign against religion.

the surviving wars of the temple mean as much to teevan as the wailing wall means to jews. all visitors walk around the temple several times. and they offer prayers. the. many people in t.v. buddhists but they worship the ancient practice of shaman ism in the same time the shamans claim they have interrogated their gift from their ancestors just like their fathers and grandfathers they communicate with the spirits for the for this this place is john's with great energy that offers us to be bring strong protection . and gives good luck. there is

a norbu is a famous sculptor in t.v. but she believes she is cursed and needs the supremes sharman to help restore her artistic talent. and let the blue skies the golden sun the silver moon and the stars give us a turn of protection. let your life be as white as milk. follows a sharman ism say that there ritual is an offering to ancestral spirits. the spirits are believed to help people of the request of sherman's as a token of gratitude for the food offered to the sacrificial bonfire. on the sharman asked to remove the curse and make the reserve feel better. and

there are. other things. my eyes now see more clearly and. the act of the suspects in a wall of the. globe remove the curse me one evening. after the show monica ritual artista rissa norbu returns to the bank of the yenisei . here she hopes to find a girl mata light semiprecious stone but she wants to use to make a figurine of a particular teevan hero. and this is it. now i'm going to make a dancer out of it on. your wrist and norbu began practicing handicraft several years ago the practice is believed to be an all male occupation

. but the research believes that female craftsman are better at capturing the facial expressions on the figurines than many. new courses but the i have a sense that i get help from someone that that's how i feel about it from the outset i have no idea how the phases or something will end up and but as soon as i'm on track things take care of themselves. that was the mood. today is just another busy day for sean he's been driving home from a rehearsal with a local orchestra. but still this day is a very special one here and that's good news for. him like today sure has finally received an important paper his residence permit. god graduations you made it all to thank you i've got the

residence permit now. sean's friends also came to congratulate them eight they have supported him for a long time along with his family but now sean can visit his relatives from the united states without any problems soon he will obtain his russian passport. eldar tunde him no sean quite well they share the same for me throat singing but at the moment eldar is hoping sure built his house. lot of work to be done making the roof and floor and i also need to take care of all this live in tar paper. for sure as children this unfinished construction means more fun and more material to play with. many sites and teams are considered sacred. one of them is the al didn't block

mountains a million is say fifty kilometers from kill they worshiped by throat singers. that's why sean cook the american who has learned to even songs and the members of the world famous ethnic band che gilt chin including his friend tom din have come here. first but. their music is full of life the sounds of nature spreading across the pristine lands of the tivo reaching cording to the oldest stephen tradition to find an inner harmony a person needs to build a temple to raise a family i'm singing

a song. shoot . my parents really truly honestly believe that what had happened was as a result of my father's exposure to agent orange i was born with multiple problems . i was missing my leg and my fingers in my big toe on my right foot i use my hands a lot in my artwork i find myself drying my hands quite a bit to me. my hands you know just as if anyone would. but they do tell a story they tell
