An important boulder was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution.
Nearby the Etuoke Banner, sites like the "Hundred Eye Well" and "Camel Lamb Ridge" are remnants of Genghis Khan's later activities. According to Pan Zhaodong, the legendary Hundred Eye Well has been buried due to wind and sand erosion, leaving only over 80 wells, which are remarkably smooth and well-distributed.
It is said that Camel Lamb Ridge is the location where a young camel was killed near Genghis Khan's tomb. Camels were essential for riding or transporting goods, serving as the primary draft animals in desert regions. When the young camel was killed in front of its mother, she became frantic. To prevent the distressed mother camel from causing harm, soldiers brought a large boulder with a hole in the middle and secured the mother camel with a wooden pole. Unfortunately, this boulder can no longer be found today as it was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution.
The search for Genghis Khan's tomb has long been a significant focus in both domestic and international archaeology. A notable excavation occurred in the summer of 2000, led by American archaeologist Murray Clavitz. In late July 2001, they discovered a massive tomb complex 11 meters below the surface on the northern side of Mount Bindel. However, it was ultimately proven to be a false burial site.
