This is the capital of the ancient principality of Emder, lost in the Ob taiga of the Khanty-Mansiysk district, 19 years ago known exclusively for the heroic epic of those places.
Residents of the Urals, ancient Ugra - who are they? They are usually considered hantas and mansyas, but is this true?
As a rule, answering this question, most inhabitants begin to talk about the inhabitants of the taiga - hunters and fishermen.
Someone will remember that they belong to the Finno-Ugric peoples and are distant relatives of the Hungarians.
But few people imagine that in the Middle Ages (IX-XVI centuries) in terms of their level of development, these taiga inhabitants differed little from the inhabitants of Kievan Rus.
Including visually.
They controlled most of the present Urals and Western Siberia and the Perm Territory, including Sverdlovsk, part of the Chelyabinsk and Kurgan regions.
All this territory was divided between a dozen principalities, in which, as in any medieval kingdom, there were their city-fortress, guarding agglomerations of villages, warriors, militia, small and large princes.
And yet – the medieval inhabitants of this area were not just hunters and fishermen.
They knew metal and cattle. It is no accident that one of the main revered animals among the descendants of local residents is still considered a horse.
Their trade links, mostly fur, extended to Veliky Novgorod in the west and Iran in the south.
In the XV-XVI centuries, they repeatedly and sometimes quite successfully attacked the eastern possessions of the Russians - the Perm lands, ruled by the Stroganovs.
However, with the arrival of Mongoloids from Central Asia, including the army of Kuchum from Bukhara, and the subsequent campaign of Yermak, the culture of the peoples of the Urals began to regress.
It is important that by the end of the XIX – beginning of the XX century, only legends remained about the former glory of the Ural tribes.
One of them - "Bulin about the heroes of the city of Emder" - at the end of the 19th century recorded the famous researcher of the Tyumen north Seraphim Patkanov.
It tells about the campaign of local heroes from the former city of Emder - the capital of the principality of the same name on Konda.
Now it is a river in KhMAO, and in the Middle Ages it was also the name of another local principality.
In general, from the legends recorded by Patkanov, it follows that the Ural heroes lived a normal life of medieval feudal lords - they built powerful fortresses, their dwellings were full of gold, silver and silk, they arranged feasts, lists, etc.
However, to find exactly where all this happened, it was possible only after almost 100 years.
Actually, because of this, Emder was dubbed the "Siberian Troy", comparing with the circumstances of the "discovery in 1871 by Heinrich Schliemann of the ancient city, known until then only by the "Iliad" of Homer.
In 1994, Ekaterinburg archaeologists Sergei Koksharov and Alexei Zykov, based on the stories of local residents, found a settlement 70 kilometers south of Nyagan on the high cape of the Yendyr River, which they called with reference to the geography of Yendyrskoye-I.
Judging by the size, serious fortification (it was surrounded by several rows of moats and ramparts), collected artifacts, it was the lost capital of the Principality of Emder.
Almost two decades of research of the settlement and the surrounding area only confirmed this assumption.
It turned out that the surrounding area has been popular with people since the Bronze Age (2 thousand years BC).
In total, nine settlements and fortified settlements were found here, as well as several burial grounds (another archaeological term denoting ancient cemeteries).
Two of them belong directly to the medieval Emder, that is, residents of the capital city found their last refuge here.
Emder itself, by the standards of that era, is a serious military-political center, structurally included (through the payment of tribute) in the larger Kodskoy principality.
This is supported by the collections of things collected by archaeologists, including weapons and jewelry made of silver and bronze.
What the medieval city looked like is best illustrated by a mock-up reconstruction exhibited in the Nyagan Museum and Cultural Center.
Everything is made of wood: two rows of log fortress walls with gate towers, in the center of the princely chambers, housing for selected warriors, forge.
During its 400-year existence (XII-XVI centuries), the city was rebuilt nine times.
Most often due to fires, and in some cases it was clearly burned during hostilities.
Despite years of fieldwork, exploration of the area is far from complete.
In particular, this year a joint expedition of Yekaterinburg archaeologists and a detachment of Nyagan schoolchildren continued to study one of the burial grounds.
The main question now is how to popularize the material obtained by scientists.
A few years ago, a project appeared to create an open-air historical and archaeological museum near Nyagan, on the territory of which it was planned to restore the medieval fortress city of Emder in full size.
Such museums in the “Tyumen nesting doll” are not uncommon.
In Khanty-Mansiysk operates "TorumMaa" (Land of NumTorum - the supreme deity in the Ugorsk pantheon).
In Yugorsk - "Suevat-paul" (village of northern winds).
But everywhere there is only a traditional way of life of the peoples of the Urals - taiga hunters and fishermen, and nowhere is there a hint of their much richer past.
Either because of the lack of funds, or because of fear to show that the peoples of the Urals were not just Khanty and Mansi, but white people, with a developed civilization, perhaps because of this, so far, the project of reconstruction of the capital of the Emder principality lies under the cloth.
Meanwhile, Emder at the moment continues to be, perhaps, one of the few qualitatively studied medieval fortresses in Russia.
Over the past two years, the condition of the monument and its surrounding area has seriously deteriorated.
First, there was a powerful forest fire, then the remains of the fortress were almost destroyed by tractors and timber trucks that removed the burner.
The view of the cape towering tens of meters above the water cut and the powerful ramparts crowning it, which unexpectedly came to you from the taiga, made a strong impression.
In 2013, this place, which turned out to be on the edge of a giant forest cutting, littered with fallen trunks and branches, is visually no longer so bright.
But only externally and only for those who do not know what exactly is hidden behind this logging.
Emder, Siberian Troy - waiting for its reconstruction !

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a Gram-negative bacterium responsible for the development of gastritis that may further progress to more severe conditions, peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer [1,2]. H. pylori have infected from 80% to 90% of the population in Russia [3]. Despite the ongoing discussion on which H. pylori infected patients should be treated up till full eradication of the infection, eradication depending on the prevalence of strains resistant to antibacterial preparations using for treatment [4]. Currently, the eradication of H. pylori is managed by the use of a triple therapy, involving the co-administration of two antibiotics and a proton pump inhibitor or bismuth during ten or fourteen days [4,5]. The resistance of H. pylori to antibiotic is a key problem to all bacteria, gaining importance if leads to treatment failure [6]. Even with the current most effective treatment regimens, about 10% to 20% of patients will fail to eradicate Helicobacter pylori infection [7]. The study of eradication failure in Russian Federation was not found, more over in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug - Ugra was not found as well. The most prescribed preparations are the Macrolides, Fluoroquinolones, Amoxicillin, Nitroimidazoles, Tetracycline among others. At the same time among the antibiotics applied in schemes of eradication H. pylori of the first line, most the problem of resistance is particularly actually to a Clarithromycin [8]. According to work of De Francesco and others in the world population the following indicators of resistance of H. pylori to antibiotics in schemes of eradication therapy Table 1 are noted [9].

On March 18, 2022, the Winter Paralympic Games "We are Together" officially started in Russia. Sports"
The competitions were held in Khanty-Mansiysk from March 17 to March 21.
The opening ceremony took place in the concert and theater complex "Ugra-Classic"
They were organized after the International Paralympic Committee suspended Russian and Belarusian athletes from the Beijing Games.
In addition to our and Belarusians, Paralympians from Tajikistan, Armenia and Kazakhstan also participated.
There were more than fifty athletes at the start.
They have been preparing for the Paralympics in Beijing for the last year.
The fact that the national team will not be allowed to perform even under a neutral flag, the athletes learned on the eve of the opening ceremony.
That evening, many athletes seriously thought of giving up sports altogether.
The salvation was the news that the launches will still take place on their native land.
