Silk Road: Uzbekistan - News and Events

Opening of New Permanent Exposition 'Moshchevaya Balka: A Monument to the North Caucasian Silk Road'

On 7 December 2007, in the Caucasian Halls a new permanent exposition was opened 'Moshchevaya Balka: A Monument to the North Caucasian Silk Road'.

Unusual in many respects - the archaeological site of the Moshchevaya Balka burial ground (8th-9th century) is located high in the north west of the Caucasian Mountains, in the upper reaches of the Bolshaya Laba River (a left tributary of the Kuban River). A deep, narrow ravine leads to the Laba pass, leading through the Greater Caucasus to the south, to the Abkhazia Range (ancient Apsilia) and further on to the Black Sea. The burial site is located on curtain terraces at a height greater than a thousand metres above sea level. The name of the river and burial ground are derived from the Russian word moshchi meaning "relics": the Russian population which came to work the region in the 19th century evidently came across mummified burials which they associated to holy relics.
