Sensing “Place”: Performance, Oral Tradition, and Improvization in the Hidden Temples of Mountain Altai

Abstract

The discussion that follows will focus on creative practices within contemporary Ak Jang in the central region of Ongudai. They are based on participation at a mountain temple Sary Bur ritual in Lower Talda, Kuroty Valley (Fig. 1), and are supplemented by recorded interviews and performances in 2006 and 2010 of those who had participated in another such ritual held at the temple above Kulady11 in the neighboring Karakol valley (Fig. 2).
