The handbook provides an overview of the current state of research on the Caucasian "Albanians" in an objective, scientifically sound manner. The contributions are not necessarily intended to reveal new scientific findings but rather to summarise approved knowledge. The volume brings together internationally renowned scholars, researchers and practitioners from various fields of studies reporting on and reviewing the state of research concerning the Caucasian "Albanians", their history and archaeology, their language and written monuments, their religion, church history and their art, including their relation to the Udi people of today. The companion is intended to neutrally introduce the readership to the subject of Caucasian Albania from various perspectives.HISTORY / Ancient / GeneralbisacshAzerbaijanCivilizationAzerbaijanfastCaucasian Albania.Caucasian Albanian Language.Eastern Orthodoxy.Southern Caucasus.HISTORY / Ancient / General.949.6501Bais Marco, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDonabédian Patrick, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDorfmann-Lazarev Igor, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDrost-Abgaryan Armenuhi, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDum-Tragut Jasmine, ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDum-Tragut Jasmine, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGippert Jost, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDeutsche Forschungsgemeinschaftfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996534570903316Caucasian Albania3398352UNISA
