"Fascinating and important."

"Leskov's Maikop Treasure is not just a beautifully compiled
catalogue of a significant group of items from various periods
offering a study of Northern Caucasian art but also the successful
attempt of an experienced scientist to compile in a few pages the
history and context of a culture little known so far to
international scholarship. . . . . It offers to the public a unique
collection of an extraordinary culture."
