Elisabeth Bennigsen, Contribution to the study of Russian fur trade. The Volga route before the Mongol invasion and the Bulgar kingdom.
Numerous Arab and Iranian sources of the Xth and the XI th centuries mention commercial relations between Muslim merchants and fur hunters in the north of Russia. These sources describe the itineraries, the products exchanged and the trade organization. Furthermore the oriental gold or silver coins discovered along the principal commercial highways go to prove the importance of such relations at the time. After the sacking of Bulgar in 1237 and the Mongol invasion that followed, the fur trade of the Great North, along the Volga, passed through a substantial decline, as confirmed by a greater scarcity of treasures constituted by oriental coins.
