Аннотация

The article examines the interaction of archaeologists and researchers of written sources on the history of the Khazar Khaganate based on the publications of the second half of the twentieth century. The controversy in the Soviet and post-Soviet Russian-language literature is traced about the reliability of the data provided by written monuments, as well as about how much the data of archaeological science may be preferable for further study of the socio-political and religious situation in the Khazar Khaganate in 9th — 10th centuries. The possibilities and prospects of archaeological work to replenish information on the history of the Khazars are determined. The tendencies for strengthening the cooperation between archaeologists and researchers of written sources are characterized. The diversity of the concepts of history and the historical significance of the Khazar Khaganate are explained with reference to specifics of the Khazar studies in contemporary world. The episodes of international cooperation in programs and projects of Khazar archeology and Khazar historiography are highlighted. The information of written sources about the conversion of the Khazars to Judaism is placed in the context of contradictions between archaeological data and evidence from written monuments about the change of the official faith in the Khazar Khaganate. With references to the fundamental publications on the methodology of studying the history of the Khazars and on the tasks of Khazar archeology, the most optimal line of delimitation of the sphere of Khazar archeology and Khazar historiography is presented.
