Аннотация

This article describes relations between the Arabs and Khazars after their military confrontation in the South Caucasus based on the analysis of the Arab sources of the 9th and 10th centuries. The established partnership of former adversaries brought about favorable conditions for international trade along the Silk Road. Particular attention is paid to the organization of trans-Caspian Sea links between the main ports of the Caspian Sea which flourished in the 9th century along the entire coast of the Caspian Sea including the Khazar capital of Itil, along with the cities of Derbent, Baku, Abaskun in Jurjan, the ports in Dekhistan, and in Mangyshlak.This article also characterizes the role of the Khazars in mobilizing the export opportunities of the dependent Central Eurasian territories as well as emphasizes the contribution of the Scandinavian merchants and their armed groups and ships in organizing navigation and providing trans-Caspian commercial traffic in the 9th century. The article reveals the connection and interdependence of information of the Arab historians and geographers about the Caspian region, and assesses its authenticity.
