My interest lies more with western Kazakhstan, specifically the region of the shrinking Aral Sea. However, the vast region of eastern Kazakhstan also captivates me. The falconers in that part of the world are an intriguing people, but, alas, their numbers are dwindling. The 4,000-year-old pyramid described in the article is about the same age as the Egyptian pyramids. Thanks for posting.
