ALIEV Bagomed Gadaevich
The famous Russian orientalist Ilya Berezin (1818–1896) after graduation from Kazan University and reception of the Master degree in Oriental literature at the request of the Trustee of the Kazan district M.N. Musin-Pushkin and on the recommendation of Professor A.A. Kazem-Bek in 1842, together with V.F. Dittel, made a three-year trip to Daghestan and Transcaucasia, Arabia, Turkey, Persia and Egypt, where he studied the languages and life of peoples, literature and antiquities of Eastern countries. The result of these trips was a series of his books, including "a Journey through Daghestan and Transcaucasia" (Kazan, 1849, 1850), which, in particular, contains interesting and important historical and ethnographic data about Daghestan. The article examines and characterizes the information of I.N. Berezin about the Tarkovsky shamkhalstvo and its center-the village of Tarki, where he stayed for a week.
