CONCLUSION

The present article summarized some of the tangible heritage related to Ondér Gegeen
Dsanabadsar. It is evident that his belongings were and are considered as sacred objects
possessing historical values: until the 1930’s many of them were worshipped and pre¬
served safely in sacred sites related to Dsanabadsar, whilst in the 2000’s the surviving
objects were acknowledged as pieces of cultural heritage of the Mongols. Though the
content of two cases that contained Dsanabadsar’s items in the Dalai Ej yurt-palace
were recorded in 1918, their story after 1918 and especially after 1938 are unknown.
Presumably, few object venerated once in the White Palace are on exhibit in the Bogd
Xan Palace Museum, whilst all the other objects disappeared during the monastery
demolitions. Rural monasteries and museums preserve relevant objects that were hid¬
den by local people. Hopefully, the baby clothes and other relics of Dsanabadsar listed
in 1918 will turn to light in the future.
