Welcome to Ancient Azerbaijan Web Site!

Land of Eternal Fire

[ Switch to Russian ]


Dear Friend,                                                                   

This page is the beginning of an adventure into the ancient past. Travel back in time with me to ancient Azerbaijan; this country located on the boundary of Eastern Europe and Asia in Caucasus.

You'll become deeply aware of the wealth and interesting discoveries of this ancient country site. As the curtain of history unfolds you'll discover many mysteries and enigmas preserved in this ancient land. With each mysterious drapery unfolding she shows her charms of centuries old. Lying deep in her hoary past are the beautiful ancient monuments of Azerbaijan culture discovered in Kobustan, Apsheron peninsula, Kelbajar and Gemigaya in Ordubad district.


The Geographical location of Azerbaijan offers; convenient bays, treasures of oil supplies, crossings of main caravan ways, and burning gasses coming up from the earth gave this country a special lure. "Land of Eternal Fire", as she is known due to the eternal fires that burn all around Apsheron peninsula of Azerbaijan. A place of unsurpassable impression with it's insuperable monuments of those years.


This site presents a small part of the Museum's archaeological materials testifying to the highly developed cultural level of the Azerbaijan people and it's seaboard settlements and towns in the middle ages.

Enjoy your visit!,

This is Ancient Azerbaijan...
