In the Twenty-First Century, in the context of globalization processes, special attention is paid to the study of the contribution of religions to the development of world civilization, spirituality and enlightenment, because spiritual culture determined the progress of society and, since ancient periods, has been closely associated with religious views and beliefs. This definition is fully applying to Buddhism, that existed for many centuries in the south of Central Asia, including in the historical and cultural region of Bactria, along with Zoroastrianism and other religions. Central Asia is considered as a territory of distribution of various religious views, religions and teachings by the world's leading research institutions since ancient times. In this regard, special studies have been conducted and their results were published in many scientific publications. In particular, Uzbek and foreign scientists carried out fundamentally important archaeological work with the aim of studying the Buddhist monuments of Tarmidh-Termez, as well as identifying the features of the spread of Buddhism through this region to Margiana, Sogdiana and East Turkistan. From this point of view and out of the need to analyze other topical issues (spiritual and material culture, fine arts, numismatics and epigraphy, reconstruction of the functions of Buddhist centers), additional research based on new approaches is an urgent scientific task.

The present volume edited by Johanna Lhuillier gathers contributions presented during the workshop “Archaeology of Central Asia during the 1st millennium BC” at the 10th ICAANE in Vienna in 2016. Designed to treat both the Iron Age and the Hellenistic period, it aims to embrace the diversity of current archaeological work led on the 1st millennium BC in Central Asia. The contributions are based on previously unpublished data and ongoing fieldwork, treating key aspects of the covered period, like chronology, the development of settlements and architecture, and the distribution and evolution of material culture. The volume casts new light on this challenging period by characterizing its cultural, socio-economical, and political transformations and focusing on broader interactions with neighbouring cultures.

Among the historical and geographical works of the XII century, researchers were less in demand for an anonymous monument, which is dated by scientists to 1126 and is called «Mujmal at-tawarih wa-l-kisas» («a Set of stories and narratives»). Despite the fact that this anonymous work has been known to the scientific world for quite a long time, V. V. Barthold has already given it a detailed description in one of his works, so far we have not seen its translation into European languages, as well as special studies on this monument. Russian and foreign scholars have focused on the description of «Mujmal at-tavarikh» either in the analysis of the corpus of monuments of the XII century, or in General works on the history of Persian literature or Seljuk historiography. In such studies, for obvious reasons, the authors have given «Mujmal at-tawarih» much less attention than it, from our point of view, deserves. At the same time, the anonymous essay, which will be discussed in this article, was analyzed, with rare exceptions, for the content of historical information in it. In the same article, we will be interested in both historical and geographical information that can be found in the framework of «Mujmal at-tavarikh» regarding Dagestan. Note that this kind of research is the first experience, at least we are not aware of other special works of this kind, the analysis of «Mujmal at-tawarih» for the presence of information in this source for the specified region. We will also be interested in possible historiographical connections between this work and earlier Arab-Persian historical and geographical monuments. Given the fact that this monument, as the researchers have already noted, is compiled, it seems to us an important scientific task to identify the above-mentioned connections. We hope that this article will increase the interest of researchers, both directly to «Mujmal at-tavarikh» and to the history of Dagestan in the pre-Mongol period.

The exchange of goods and materials by way of trading and exchanges were common in ancient times between India and China via silk route and other trading routes. The movement of people from one place to another brought exchange of not only materials but also techniques and processes and helped to establish their own manufacturing facilities and craftsmanship. This has resulted into a cross-cultural influence over the craft forms as reflected in many resemblances of material culture, annotations and apologies seen in various forms and shapes in multiple domains such as ceramic pottery, glazed pottery, metalware, ship buildings, printing, silk and other fabrics, patterns and motifs etc. Observations of ancient remains from Belitung and artifacts from Indian cities along secondary and tertiary Silk routes, show significant influence in the similarities in techniques, materials, surface treatments, kiln processes, colors, motifs , etc. This paper examines a cross-cultural resemblance of product form factor between Changsha pottery and pots to ceramic ware from eastern parts and metalware from western regions of India like Gujarat and Rajasthan. The spread of Buddhism from India to China and other eastern and south eastern countries during this period must also form a strong reason for this cultural exchange.

In this article we conclude, via a comparison of the 19th C. scientific publications concerning the Belgian parliament and the state of parliamentological research of the day, that Belgian writers achieved an international standard. In Belgium, as elsewhere in Europe, parliamentology was pursued from the standpoint of various complementary schools of thought. Modern political history provided very detailed information about the functioning of the parliamentary institution; constitutional law investigated the juridical aspects of it ; political science transcended these juridical boundaries and took account of the political aspects as well ; this method was also pursued in the field of political economy which, from a methodological point of view, can be regarded as the fundamental current of parliamentary sociology .It can be asserted that these writers are the founders of modern parliamentology despite the rather weak methodological foundation of their studies, the relative lack of empirical data-collection and the infiuenceof political commitment. As is still the case today, so also in the 19th C, the formal-juridical approach was dominant ; however, it was also insight-fully recognized that the most important problems of power lay in the mutual relations of the members of parliament themselves and in their relation to the majority, the opposition and the executive power. These studies furnish, therefore, very interesting lines of inquiry for the diachronic treatment of the majority of the problems of contemporary parliamentology.

More marvellous and more remarkable than the real conquests of Alexander are the stories circulated about him, and the legends which have clustered round his name and his exploits. The history of Alexander has, from a very early period, been embellished with legends and tales. They spread from nation to nation during the whole of the ancient times, and all through the Middle Ages. Many scholars have followed up the course of this dissemination of the fabulous history of Alexander. It would, therefore, be idle repetition of work admirably done by men like Zacher, Wesselofsky, Budge, and others, should I attempt it here. All interested in the legend of Alexander are familiar with those works, where also the fullest bibliographical information is to be found. I am concerned here with what may have appeared to some of these students as the bye-paths of the legend, and which, to my mind, has not received that attention which is due to it, from more than one point of view. Hitherto the histories of Alexander were divided into two categories; the first were those writings which pretended to give a true historical description of his life and adventures, to the exclusion of fabulous matter; the other included all those fabulous histories in which the true elements were smothered under a great mass of legendary matter, the chief representative of this class being the work ascribed to a certain Callisthenes. The study of the legend centred in the study of the vicissitudes to which this work of (Pseudo-) Callisthenes had been exposed, in the course of its dissemination from the East, probably from its native country, Egypt, to the countries of the West.

This article analyzes the artistically-shaped qualities of cable-stayed bridges, their place and role in the structure of the conception of the city. The article describes the different forms of expression of these qualities in changing situations of the city environment. The problem of the functioning of the cable-stayed bridges in the structure of the city image does not become an object of special studies earlier. Studying the cable-stayed bridges from a totally different point of view is the novelty of this article. Researches in the bridge building assume special importance in sight of the increase of the cable-stayed bridges number built in Russia, and in sight of the optimization of this type construction.

The aim of the present research is to investigate Lorca’s poem from cultural materialist point of view. To do so, the researcher investigates how culture and social mechanism function in the context in which the poems have been written. Cultural materialism attempts to investigate different aspects of society, art, economy, language, and politics from an external point of view and analyze them to find out how identity and self are shaped accordingly. Cultural materialism is demonstrated in different categories including gender, ethnic studies, postmodernism, postcolonialism, and other fields. Cultural materialism highlights the relation between a work of art and the ideological system in which it has been created. In other words, cultural, social, religious and several other factors must be accounted for while interpreting a work of art. Consequently, how cultural dogma functions within fine arts in order to produce the internal textures is uncovered through cultural materialism. In Lorca’s poems, the contents have symbolic and metaphoric mechanisms which can be interpreted through material analysis.
