Extract

The mass deportation of a conquered people from tenth-century Mongolia known from documents is here tracked archaeologically by survey and excavation. The authors found evidence for the maintenance of Bohai tradition in the fortress of Chintolgoi, many thousands of kilometres south of their homeland.
