{"product_id":"sources-on-the-alans-9789004114425","title":"Sources on the Alans","description":"The first exhaustive key to the sources to, and the proper names of the Alans. The scattered nature of sources and their dispersion in time, space and intermediary languages may explain the lack of a true comprehensive guide to this important ancient people, a nomadic tribe of Iranian stock, living from one end of the Eurasian steppes to the other. Documents from ancient up to medieval times regularly make, in a wide variety of languages, mention of the Alans. \u003cbr\u003eWith his \u003ci\u003eSources on the Alans\u003c\/i\u003e Agustí Alemany now provides us for the first time with a reliable and exhaustive handbook by collecting, classifying, translating (or summarizing) \u003ci\u003eall reports on the Alans\u003c\/i\u003e written in Greek, Latin, Medieval Latin, Byzantine, Arabic, Armenian, Catalan, Georgian, Hebrew, Iranian, Mongol, Russian, Syriac and Chinese languages. \u003cbr\u003eThe volume will also be frequently used as an \u003ci\u003eOnomasticon\u003c\/i\u003e. With time tables and indices on authors and passages. A reference work in the truest sense.","brand":"Agustí Alemany","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48310585262331,"sku":"9789004114425","price":312.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9789004114425.jpg?v=1772491061","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/sources-on-the-alans-9789004114425","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
