1. Scripts of Mongolia: How Genghis Khan Wrote - Talk with John Man and Sukhbaatar Davaakhuu 10 March 2010 6.45PM

The Mongols used several scripts over the 800 years of their history, starting with the decision of their leader Genghis Khan to adopt Uighur as the official script for his gigantic Asian empire. Uighur, now known as Classical Mongolian script, has seen a resurgence of its use in Mongolia in recent years. Sukhbaatar Davaakhuu and John Man explore the various scripts used by the Mongols, including Latin and the Phags-pa (Square script) used by Kublai Khan, and assess the significance of these scripts in Mongolian history.
