You Kash-besotted Mesopotamians probably had contact with the Mongolians, way back when. Through next Saturday, 5 December, our Ancient Worlds Symposion will be hosting John Man. A historian and travel writer, Mr. Man has a special interest in Mongolia, and during his time with us our discussion will be focusing on two of his books - Gobi and Genghis Khan, though I expect he would be happy to answer any questions you might have on ancient contacts with your part of the world. We hope you all will join us!

For a complete list of his books, please visit his home, which was beautifully decorated by Jia Li Shen Chi.

Jia also designed these plaques to promote our latest guest. Please help yourself and add them to your own homes or anywhere else someone might notice them.
