The participants will see a reconstructed model of the seal of the Emperor of the Great Mongol Empire, which is displayed in the “Hall of Great Mongol Empire” of the Chinggis Khaan National Museum. In 1246, Pope Innocent IV’s envoy Plano Carpini came to Kharkhorum and presented the papal letter to the Emperor of the Great Mongol Empire, Guyug. Guyug’s response letter was written in Mongolian and written, translated into Latin and Saracen (Persian), and sent to the Pope.
The Persian translation of the letter, which was kept in the Vatican’s secret archives, was discovered by Polish scholar Cyril Karalewski in 1920, and the French scholar P. Pelliot read the seal script of the letter and put it into circulation for research in 1923. Through this program, the meaning and ideas of the seal script of the Emperor of the Great Mongol Empire will be explained and introduced. In addition, the program aims to make the participants feel the importance and value of the unique Mongolian writings and state monuments of the 13th century and to cultivate a sense of pride in one's own language and culture. The program is a program where you can make postcards from the stamp writing and write a letter to your loved one. Price: Free program.
