The Khazar Empire (ca. 650 - circa 965-969), one of the largest states of medieval Eurasia, extended from the Middle Volga lands in the north to the Northern Caucasus and Crimea in the south and from the Ukrainians steppelands to the western borders of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan in the east. Turkic in origin, it played a key role in the history of the peoples of Rus?, medieval Hungary and the Caucasus. Khazaria became one of the great trans-Eurasian trading terminals connecting the northern forest zones with Byzantium and the Arabian Caliphate. In the ninth century, the Khazars converted to Judaism. This book sheds new light on many unanswered, but fundamental questions regarding the Khazar Empire, so important in medieval Eurasia. 410 0$aHandbuch der Orientalistik.$nAchte Abteilung,$pHandbook of Uralic studies ;$vv. 17. 606 $aKhazars$xHistory$vCongresses 615 0$aKhazars$xHistory 676 $a947.5/201 701 $aGolden$b Peter B$0638398 701 $aBen-Shammai$b Haggai$01684722 701 $aRona-Tas$b Andras$00 712 02$aMekhon Ben-Tsevi le-heker kehilot Yisrael ba-Mizrah. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808539603321 996 $aThe world of the Khazars$94056348 997 $aUNINA
