This site claims 47º21´N, 107º45´E, 65 km southeast from Ulaanbaatar, but there seems to be nothing there. It is also in obvious conflict with the site near Nalaikh described by Ross, in modern travel guides, and reported by people on the internet who have actually visited the site. I thought maybe there are two monuments, but kaznpu.kz clearly says that this is the "Bayn Tsokto" site. So it seems they just got the coordinates wrong. They also claim the site is called "Tsagaa Ovoo", which is probably a mistake derived from the fist one(?), and this name made it onto Wikipedia, and from there all over the internet. --dab (𒁳) 11:36, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
