Yesterday, Emma Astvatsaturian passed away at age 89 in Moscow.
She established the typologies used in researching Caucasian arms & armor in the 1960s and 70s; these remain valid to the present.
She researched and administered the Caucasian Arms Collections of the State Historical Museum, Moscow, and was widely published. Her most notable work is ORUZHIYE NARODOV KAVKAZA. Virtually every time we refer to Caucasian arms, we quote her. She will be remembered for her great contributions to the field.

Հանգչիր խաղաղությամբ
Светлая ей память
