Abstract

The author introduces its leaders A.Kh. Khalikov, G.A. Arkhipov, V.V. Nikitin, as well as many other archaeologists and defines the role of the MAE in training of the regional archaeologists. Massive archaeological sources of all ages uncovered by the expedition set numerous questions to the researchers.
