metadata.value: This paper provides information on the 6th–8th centuries Dagestan history on the basis of
  translation, commentary and comparative analysis of excerpts from the Arabic historical work
  Tarikh ar-rusul wa al-muluk (History of the Prophets and Kings) of at-Tabari which contains
  data related to the history of the peoples of North Caucasus. In his multi-volume work Abu
  Ja’far at-Tabari (d.922) gives in detail a world history: describing events from the creation of
  world and covering through it the history of ancient civilizations known to Muslims. For the
  most part of the book at-Tabari relates the events in annual reports within the hijra space up
  to 302/915. The historical work of at-Tabari served as a source for the most of his successors
  who authored works on universal history in Muslim historiography. At-Tabari’s reports significantly
  add to his predecessors’ data on the relationships between the Caliphate and polities
  in the Eastern Caucasus, particularly, the important parts dedicated to Qabq (Caucasus), including
  al-Bab (Darband), from the time of its conquest (in 40s of the 7th century). Moreover,
  I compared reports on Dagestan from at-Tabari’s Tarikh ar-rusul and al-Balathuri’s Futuh albudan
  in order to find out whether the origin of the material is the same for both authors. As a
  result, only two passages were found that overlap. It should be noted that at-Tabari, in contrast
  to al-Balathuri, relates the story and events taken in Caliphate in chronological order without
  attempting to reconcile conflicting messages. The results of this research can further source
  study in writing the medieval history of Eastern Caucasus.
