Selected Papers from the Jerusalem 1999 International Khazar Colloquium hosted by the Ben Zvi Institute

The Khazar Empire was one of the major states of medieval Eurasia. Drawing on a variety of disciplines (history, linguistics, archaeology, literary studies), the papers in this volume shed new light on many of the disputed topics in Khazar history. The papers in this volume stemming from a wide variety of disciplines shed new light on this important empire that was so central to the history of its era. They represent a wide range of viewpoints and give a good idea of the state of Khazar studies in the present day. In the intervening years since the Colloquium, many of the authors updated and expanded their papers, which were first presented in 1999. - P. B. Golden
