Mongolian place names
I've browsed the two books of mine that contain some Mongolian text, and put
the names of well-known fossil sites online, together with how the names
appear in Russian publications. I didn't bother to attempt a transcription
which would only introduce subjectivity, so if you can't read Cyrillic
letters, too bad:

Note (if you can) that the letters for b and v never alternate in the suffix
"tsav".
Too bad the Mongolian-language Wikipedia seems not to have an article on
dinosaurs yet! That would hopefully contain a few more place names!
