Bituun
-Thursday March 2, 2023
Banks only : The day before New Years Day is known as Bituun, meaning to close down. At the eve of the old year there is a celebration called Bituuleg. There is a big amount of covered food, where the meat is covered by for instance a layer of dough. Also the Ul Boov is created: a pile of ceremonial bread (boov) in an odd number of layers. Later traditional games can be played, and oral histories are told. It is said that at Bituun Baldanlham, a local god, is riding her mule during this time. She would be coming by three times so every family puts three pieces of ice on the top of the door of the ger, or on the balcony for people living in an apartment, for the mule to drink. http://mongoluls.net/tsagaansar.shtml
