The book is intended for a wide range of readers interested in the history of our country, and tells about one of the most ancient peoples on the planet, whose age is 30 thousand years – that’s 1000 generations. These people began their historical (or rather, prehistoric) journey in the middle of the Ice Age. They went through thousands of glacial years, through thousands of years of the Stone Age, through the Bronze Age, went through all eras of the history of the peoples of Eastern Europe and joined the modern Russian people.
