Global Digital Preservation Initiative for Shamanic Folklore and Cultural Heritage

Nomadic Shaman Ancestry Yearbook

Preserve nomadic heritage roots and compile the annual folk customs compendium.

Establish a unified digital system for Shamanic Root Culture, historically lacking organization, cataloging, and standards. This includes implementing unified collection criteria, a centralized character database, standardized functional hierarchies, integrated folklore genealogies, and consistent annual publications.

Core Mission

Preserve and pass down heritage from home and abroad that has historical records, documented archives, and is destined to be handed down through generations.

📚

Folklore Academic Archive

Objectively document the traditional folk social functions, historical remains, ritual artifacts, and oral histories of ancient nomadic and hunting-fishing groups in Northern China and North Asia.

🔍

Urgent Conservation of Endangered Cultural Heritage

Address the inherently decentralized nature of shamanic culture—lacking unified texts and relying on oral transmission—to launch a digital preservation initiative.

💻

Digital preservation of living heritage

A proprietary three-tier quantification system for folk culture competencies, powered by AI to distinguish authenticity from fabrication while maintaining academic neutrality and avoiding commercial bias.

📖

Official Historical Annals Compilation

Comprehensive annual yearbook with permanent archiving, filling the historical gap of thousands of years by establishing a unified database and authoritative records for nomadic shamanic folk traditions.

Three-tier hierarchy

Pioneered quantitative classification of folk professional skills, discarding spiritual cultivation metrics with academic neutrality and no commercial bias.

First Layer

Basic Folk Heritage

Home

Family private heritage: limited to household ancestral worship, small family sacrifices, and basic blessings.

Second Layer

Mature Folklore Heritage

Clan/Village Level

Local folk ritual practitioners who master complete traditional ceremonies, incantations, and procedures.

Third Level

High-Tier Clan Legacy

Cross-regional benchmark

Regional cultural heritage: presiding over ancient rituals such as tribal sky-worship ceremonies and grand Obong festivals.

Rare and Endangered Successor

Permanent Compliance Baseline

Uphold academic neutrality; prevent commercial distortion.

We do not offer commercial services related to religious proselytizing, spiritual practice instruction, or mindfulness experiences.
The three-tier classification is solely an objective record of folk social functions.
Strictly distinguish between indigenous traditional folk customs and modern commercial spiritual systems.
Dual-layer risk control: AI auto-filtering plus full manual review by the editorial board.
