"Biram helped me carry my baggage to the nearest road. We walked slowly along the plains, and when I looked back I could see Zaurkan standing on the mound; a lone figure, all that remained of an old fortress wall...
I didn’t look back anymore. I wanted to remember him that way. And I want him to appear that way, like the last proud fragment of the past, to others when they read the book about him that I will most certainly write. " - The last of the Departed by Barghat Shinkuba
A photography tribute to Zaurkhan and to the Ubykh people.
