Notes

Swedish geographer and Central Asian researcher S. А. Hedin led many large-scale expeditions in Central Asia and Tibet between 1886 and 1934, collecting materials related to geography, climate, flora and fauna of these regions. He  accumulated wealth of information about the many ethnographic groups residing in these regions and published many interesting books about the Mongols in Europe
