Abstract
Ancient and medieval historical and geographical written monuments are valuable sources for studying the geographical, toponymic, etymological, ethnopolitical history of various territories. Geographical discoveries of medieval scientists and travelers based on specific materials will make a new scientific contribution to the reconstruction of ideas about the area, but also contribute to the study of the heritage of the Turkic peoples. As part of the study of historiography, the works of Arab geographers and travelers occupy a huge place among foreign sources related to various countries. And the studies of Western orientalists of the new time have not lost their relevance to this day. This article is dedicated to the book of the Syrian geographer, historian and politician Abu al-Fida’ (1273-1331) «Taqwim al-Buldan». The article provides a historiographical analysis of the accumulated knowledge of historical science in order to identify important information, as well as conducting paradigmatic links with sources of medieval time. The level of study of the topic shows new aspects of historical reality that are necessary for further research.
