The Center for the Study Eurasian Nomads, Kazahh / American Research
Project, Inc., announces the publication in English of:
NOMADS OF THE EURASIAN STEPPES IN THE EARLY IRON AGE
Jeannine Davis-Kimball, Vladimir S. Bashilov, and Leonid T. Yablonsky, Eds.
An anthology focusing on the Scythian, Sauromatian, Sarmatian, and
Saka Early Nomads who inhabited the Eurasian steppes in the 1st millennium
B.C. from southern Russia, through Kazakhstan and southern Siberia, and as
far east as western Mongolia. The essays, written by ten of the foremost
archaeologists from the Institute of Archaeology, Russian Academy of
Sciences, present a survey of archaeological excavations conducted
primarily between 1960 and 1990.
Topics include the historiography of pre-Soviet and Soviet
excavations, religious beliefs, lifeways, and migratory patterns of the
nomads. Archaeological cultures from the Scythians in the north Caucasus,
southeastern Europe, and the Crimea are complemented by the Sauromatians
and Sarmatians in the Volga-Don interfluvial, the Saka in Central Asia, the
Scythians in Siberia, and the Early Nomads in Outer Mongolia.
The overwhelming majority of the material, including the
illustrations, has never been published in English before this volume.
