An ovoo is raised over a period of many years or generations in honor of the indwelling spirit of the mountain, river, or spring where it appears. In modern times travelers charcteristcally indicate their gratitude for a safe journey by adding a stone or other object to the pile."@en . . "ovoo/oboo"@en . . "2015-07-16"^^ . "2015-07-16"^^ .
