Journal Title: Поволжская Археология - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 13
Abstract
The 6-volume Tatar encyclopaedia completed recently (2002–2014) is considered in the ar-ticle, first of all its content and scientific and practical prospect from the view-point of archaeology development. The analysis of information on the archaeology of Tatarstan, on the Tatar and other ethnoses demonstrates its insufficiency in the framework of the Tatar encyclopaedia and, conse-quently, the importance of preparing a new illustrated scientific reference edition "Archaeology of Tatarstan: the encyclopaedia", which is necessary for systematization and accumulation of materials on historical and cultural heritage of the people of East Eurasia. Special attention is paid to the spe-cificity of selection of archaeological materials and scientific methodology of preparation of the branch local lore scientific and reference edition.
