Genghis Khan (c. 1162-1227) united warring tribes to become leader of the
Mongols in 1206. After his death, his descendants expanded his empire until
it stretched from China to Hungary.

"Genghis Khan conquered Eurasia and built a massive empire. There had to have
been a great deal of interaction between east and west at the time, in terms
of culture and the exchange of goods," Kato (Shinpei Kato, professor emeritus
at Tokyo's Kokugakuin University) said in an interview. "If we find what
items were buried with him, we could write a new page for world history."

If researchers do find the tomb, they would also likely discover the graves of
Kublai Khan Genghis' grandson who spread the Mongol empire to southeast Asia
and became the first emperor of China's Yuan Dynasty at the same time.
