Galina Mamonova, Hospitality and Respect for Older People's image
Description: Galina talks about how Kalmyks showed their respect to their elders. She says that older people were always offered to sit in respectable places and were served fresh tea and food. It was customary to inquire about the guest’s clan affiliation and other news. People really tried not to offend those who were older by age. Kalmyks loved hosting.
