A key focus of the exhibition “The Ethnography of Transbaikal” is the traditional everyday life of the local peoples in the region: the Buryats, the Evenks and the Semeiskie — a community of Old Believers who were force to relocate here, as well as the Russians.
The visitors will see national costumes and headdresses, which were worn by representatives of different peoples, and their household items, as well as weapons of the first explorers of Siberia, documents and photographs made throughout the years. The exhibition presents a full-size yurt and chum — the traditional dwellings of nomadic Buryat and Evenk tribes.
Some exhibits are arranged to look like an altar of a Buddhist temple, and others — as installations. The latter are dedicated to traditional Evenk rituals: feeding the fire and obtaining hunting luck.
Exhibits are marked with AR stickers for identification purposes.
