The Missing Tomb | National Geographic


based on reports and past expeditions
all of which have tried and failed we
targeted one section at the hindi
mountain range as a likely location of
the Brecon call dude
it’s about a hundred miles northeast of
the capital 40 miles south of the
Russian border in a place called the
Eagan codec or the Forbidden Zone
lazy
where we going roads can disappear
overnight so we send an advanced party
on horseback to scout for passable
terrain
hey why are we stopping it’ll sink the
roads we’re gonna stop showing their
might right now check it out two of our
trucks already stuck this doesn’t look
good three years ago if you’d ask me
where I’d be today I tell you I’d be
stuck in an office doing something I
didn’t love I was just one year shy
getting my PhD in material science and
engineering I packed my bags for Beijing
and bought a ticket on the
trans-siberian railroad find out what my
grandfather meant when he said our
family comes from the north my plan was
to go to Mongolia and Bioforce to ride
through the countryside and live with
nomads I’d only one changing clothes in
a GPS everyone told me I was crazy
the more out here I was crazy the more I
wanted to prove everybody wrong
so I crossed the border into Mongolia
I found a world that had changed little
and millennium
and at its core jenga’s Khan a
charismatic figure whose true history
was as lost to the Western world as his
tomb locked away somewhere in the
ancestral homelands a Forbidden Zone and
haunted by this mystery
