The
site administrator lived next door with two Kalmyks back in 1962-1968 in
the old part of Belgrade and was (at that time) unaware of their story/history
- he was just a kid. He was very close with these quiet and gentle people,
and they liked him very much - especially since he was fond of horses -
from them he learned all he knew about these noble beings. In 1968
he moved to a new part of the city and later - after receiving friend's
letter - he tried to contact his ex-neighbours - alas, it was
too late, they have been dead already. They had no children.
