ABSTRACT : Shirvanshahs’ Heritage in the World’s Museums explores the rich material culture of the Shirvanshahs’ state in medieval Azerbaijan by documenting artifacts preserved in museums worldwide. The book highlights a wide range of objects—including helmets, inscriptions, pottery, and architectural decorations—that reflect the artistic, cultural, and political life of the Shirvanshahs. It traces how these pieces were collected, restored, and exhibited in international institutions, situating them within both historical and contemporary contexts. Additionally, the study examines the impact of historical events, such as wars and cultural exchanges, on the dispersal of these artifacts, while emphasizing their role in representing Azerbaijani national identity. Serving as a comprehensive visual and scholarly reference, the book provides valuable insights for researchers interested in museum studies, heritage preservation, and the historical legacy of Azerbaijan.
