The Mongolian Altai Inventory and its associated Mapping Project are based on fourteen years of field research in mountainous Bayan Ölgiy aimag, northwestern Mongolia. It is dedicated to the identification and recording of all significant concentrations of surface archaeology in that region and to the analysis of their typologies, probable chronologies, and interconnection with the larger landscape.

This project will result in the publication of the Cultural Atlas of the Ancient Mongolian Altai [ESRI Press].
