The book "Ancient Minsk", written by the famous archaeologist Eduard Mikhailovich Zagorulsky, is deeply scientific in content and at the same time popular in genre, has withstood the rigorous test of time. One of the secrets of her longevity lies in the author's ability to combine a strictly strict adherence to the logic of scientific analysis with an excellent literary presentation of historical information.
The materials obtained by the researcher in 1958–1961, when he headed the archaeological excavations on the territory of the Minsk Castle, have not lost their relevance to the present day. The conclusions made by him could not be refuted either by archaeological science, which has passed important stages in its development during this period, or by the results of archaeological excavations in the ancient settlement on Menka. In this supplemented edition, the reader will visibly see the appearance of the city of the 11th-12th centuries.
The book will promote the popularization of knowledge about ancient Minsk among the younger generation and will become a tribute of deep respect to the outstanding scientist.
