Maria and the Ukok Princess: Climate change and the fate of the Altai

As the climate changes, the future for the Altai tombs that Maria and her people seek, is not about keeping ancient artifacts encased in permafrost. They want to restore and sustain the role of the ancestral burial kurgans and other sacred sites in protecting Altai and its people from various challenges. The ability of Maria and her people to face the challenges of climate change and development depends on the help of the Ukok Princess Kadyn. So, without a doubt, the Princess must come home.
