Pi Shashin (Mongolian: Пи Шашин) is an ethnic religion primarily practised in the Töv Province of central Mongolia, with adherents estimated at between five hundred and a thousand individuals. The faith is believed to have roots in Tengriism and shamanism, with later influences from Tibetan Buddhism. The earliest references to Pi Shashin as a separate faith have been traced back to the late thirteenth century but most of what is known about the religion was recorded in the early twentieth century by Danish anthropologist and explorer Henning Haslund-Christensen. The sect was largely driven underground during Socialist rule over Mongolia during the 20th century but since democratisation in the 1990's has experienced a resurgence.
