Abstract:
The relations of the Iranian-speaking ancestors of the Alan-Ossetians with the ancient
peoples of Dagestan go back centuries. Archaeological artifacts testify to the presence of
Scythian-Sarmatian tribes on the territory of Dagestan. The intensive development of the
territory of Dagestan by the Alans began from the first centuries A.D. with a gradual
intensification by the beginning of the 11th century A.D. At the turn of the V-VI centuries,
two large tribal associations formed in Alanya: Western and Eastern. The Western one was
localized in the upper reaches of the Kuban, Pyatigorsk, and the Eastern Alania (Ikhran),
which covered the territory from Daryal to the western borders of Dagestan, maintained
contacts with the Dagestan state formations that existed from IV to XII: Derbent, Ladz,
Tabasaran. These relations were especially long (6 centuries) and close with the neighboring
principality of Sarir. With the collapse of the Khazar Khaganate (X century), Irkhan and
Sarir, which were part of it, not only expanded their borders, but became the largest in the
North Caucasus. Sarir existed until the XII century, and Alanya, after the peak of power
(X-XI centuries), was defeated by the Tatar-Mongols and disappeared from the political
map of the world. The contacts of the Alan-Ossetians with the peoples of Dagestan were
interrupted for seven centuries.
Keywords: Scythian-Sarmatians, Alans, borders, the Alan kingdom, Sarir, the Khazar khaganate, Tatar-Mongols.
