Description: The nomadic peoples of the great grasslands of the former USSR have left little in the way of settlement evidence, and archaeologists studying their history have had to rely on environmental remains to reconstruct their pasts.
Review Quotes: There is little doubt that, for the near future, it will become a first-class crib for all students (and researchers) with an interest in the Eurasian steppe.'
'The publications of papers by scholars from the old Soviet bloc, who presently face difficulties as a result of the political changes of 1991, is greatly to be welcomed, and the dialogue between Eastern and Western scholars thus begun should be encouraged. The present volume makes a very substantial contribution to this process.'--Magdalena S Midgley "American Journal Of Archaeology, 106, 2002"
