Since 2008, the Center for Research of the Golden Horde Civilization at the Institute of History of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Tatarstan has begun publishing a yearbook - a collection of scientific articles "Golden Horde Civilization" dedicated to the history, culture, source study and historiography of the Golden Horde. And this is the second issue of articles. It is gratifying that the collection presents the works of not only Russian scientists, but also foreign researchers of the Golden Horde history.
