Abstract
The materials obtained during the work on the complex of mausoleums of the Golden Horde era near the village of Lapas in the Astrakhan region by the Volga archaeological expedition led by V.V. Dvornichenko in 1995 – 1997 are introduced into scientific circulation. These were the first scientific studies of the largest cult complex of the Golden Horde nobility, little known in the scientific community. It was then that the idea of the true size, composition and potential of the archaeological monument, its significance in the culture of the Golden Horde and the development of Islam in the Eurasian space appeared.
