In this chapter, we will concentrate on the arid Northeast Asian steppe region east of the Altai mountains, between the forested steppe of Siberia to the north and the loess highlands of eastern Asia to the south. The three primary regions that we will consider are the Khangai mountains in Central Mongolia, the Gobi Desert, and the Ikh Nurruud basin, or Basin of Great Lakes, in western Mongolia (Figure 10.1). The last provides an extensive record of climate proxies from the lakes. Archaeological data, however, comes primarily from the Gobi Desert region.
