Фундаментальный труд А. Алеманя Аланы в древних и средневе ковых письменных источниках , вышедший в свет в 2003 г., открывает новые возможности для развития алановедческих исследований. А. Алемань создал структуру, позволяющую дополнять его работу источниками, которые по тем или иным причинам не вошли в его книгу. В настоящей статье приводится ряд источников, которые значительно дополняют структуру, предложенную А. Але манем: Иоанн Галонифонтибус, Никифор Григора, Ф. Брун, Венецианская хроника Мартина Канале и т. д. Автор предлагает специалистамисторикам подклю читься к работе по дополнению структуры, созданной А. Алеманем, чтобы со временем научному сообществу была представлена более полная картина, от ражающая весь спектр источников по средневековым аланам. The book Sources on the Alans: a critical compilation by a wellknown Catalonian scholar AugustiAlemany was published in 2003 and has become a signi cant phenomenon in the eld of historical Alanian studies. A. Alemanis fundamental work opens new opportunities to develop research in the eld of Alanian studies. The author compiled numerous written evidences on the Alans, that had come to us from the past centuries. Among other issues A. Alemani created a structure which enables to complement his work with sources on the Alans that, for whatever reason, were not included in the book. The author of the article provides a number of sources that complement signi cantly the structure which was suggested by A. Alemany. These sources are Johannes de Galonifontibus, NicephorusGregoras, F. Bruun, the Venetian chronicle of Martin da Canale and etc. The article calls upon historians that specialize in this particular eld to join the effort to complement the structure created by A. Alemany with sources that were not included in his book. This is to be done in order to provide eventually researches with the opportunity to present the scienti c community a full picture containing the whole spectrum of sources on the medieval Alans.
