Mongolian people: Epic of Jangar
The Epic of Jangar is believed to have originated among the Oirat Mongolian tribe in China during the 13th century. Developing to nearly 100,000 lines by the 17th century, it spread to other Mongolian settlements in Mongolia and Russia and gained popularity with the migration of the Oirats.
