GEOGRAPHY:
Nomadic
peoples of central Asia were pastoralists who kept herds of animals—horses,
sheep, goats, cattle, and camels. They built societies by adapting to the
ecological conditions of lands. Central Asia does not receive enough rain
to support large-scale agriculture, but grasses and shrubs flourish on the
steppe lands.They drove their animals to lands with abundant grass and
then moved them along as the animals thinned the vegetation. They lived
mostly off the meat, milk, and hides of their animals. They used animal bones
for tools and animal dung as fuel for fires. They made shoes and clothes out of
wool from their sheep and skins from their other animals. Wool was also used to fashion large tents called yurts in
which they were they lived. They even prepared an alcoholic drink from animal products by
fermenting mare’s milk into KUMISS . they also use it as a medicine.
