ABOUT THE FIRST NAADAM FESTIVAL FOR historical victory OF THE 1921 MONGOLIAN REVOLUTION

Naadam is complex expression of heritage of history, culture and state tradition of Mongolia. Therefore, foreigners visiting to Mongolia want to see Mongolian festival – Naadam. So, Mongolian’s Naadam is being studied by globally as history, ethnology, education, science and literature. As a result, traditional Mongolian naadam certificated as World cultural heritage by UNESCO in 2011. Even conducting research on Naadam through many sides but have not completely discovered yet its secrets. You can see it studies of Naadam’s history. Especially, people’s imagination and understanding about Naadam based on unscientific knowledge. As a result of that, during the long time produced a lot proofless stories about the Mongolian’s Naadam festival. One of them is first celebration of Naadam for victory of revolution which held in July 11, 1921. Since early times Mongolians had been celebrated Naadam for any major or special event like other nations. As that tradition, Mongolians celebrated special Naadam festival for victory of revolution of 1921. This naadam is called “First naadam of the People’s Government of Mongolia” in Mongolian history. 1921’s revolution was strongly influenced XX century’s Mongolian history. So, many Mongolian scholars conducted research and wrote articles and notes on the first Naadam of Mongolia’s People’s Government. But they were non scientific. Because of these reasons our study directed to first Naadam for the 1921 Mongolian revolution. According to most fact and documents scholars have three different proposals on this issue. As a result of study these proposals, the first Naadam festival which organized for Revolution’s victory of 1921 was held on July 11, 1921 in northernmost town named Khiagt, Mongolia.
