Gudrat İsmayilzade
'''Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor, Head of the Department of Archeology and Ethnography of the Faculty of History Honored teacher Gudrat Ismayilzade was born on October 24, 1934 in Baku oil family. In the late 1950s Gudrat Ismayilzade's life was linked to the History Institute of the Academy of Sciences of Azerbaijan. Working here would allow him to engage in the theory and participate in archaeological expeditions. Thus, a new stage in the life of a young scientific worker began: archaeological excavations, investigations, summaries and so on. Today, we have a lot of historical-architectural and archaeological monuments in the enemy-occupied Garabagh territory. One of the historical examples of our ancient places is the Garakopaktepe monument in Fuzuli region. In 1964, under the leadership of outstanding archaeologist Gudrat Ismailzade, scientific researches were started around the monument. This study was continued until the end of the 1980s. The findings have completely changed the previous imaginations about the monument. Archeological researches From the V millennium BC to the 18th century, it is a place of residence. According to researchers, some of the findings reflect the Kura-Araz culture. In addition, there were found examples of recent Bronze, Early Iron and Antique Periods on the top of the hill. Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor Gudrat Ismayilzadeh, who studies this period, says that when we say Kura-Araz culture, the Bronze Age culture, which emerged in the IV millennium BC, spread from the Caucasus to the eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea. Just in this period, changes in social, economic, cultural life have taken place and the basis of metallurgy has been laid. These arguments show that the Kur-Araz culture has a more ancient history in Azerbaijan. Ismailov GS first stage of the Kura-Araz culture. It relates to the end of the IV millennium. All his expeditions were fruitful and enriched the scientific knowledge of archeology in our republic. Some studies conducted under the leadership of Ismayilzadeh have done much to study early farming in the area between the Kuruçay and Kondalanchay settlements in the south-eastern part of the Lesser Caucasus as a result of archaeological excavations. In his book Guruchay and Ancient Culture Traces in the Kondalanchay valley, Q.Ismayilzadeh also provides information about the first Bronze Age settlements along with other monuments of the area. Scientists have come to the conclusion that in the IV-III millennium BC, along with agriculture and cattle-breeding, metallurgy, craftsmanship, and pottery products have developed extensively. It was during that time that people learned to produce bronze. However, instead of tin and nickel, which is necessary for the bronze acquisition, instead of copper in the territory of Azerbaijan, the arsenic additive was added. Expeditions headed by Ismayilzade found more than 50 ancient settlements. During the excavations, graves were buried with decorative items, household equipment and weapons. The scientist also participated in excavations in the famous Azykh cave. Participation in international scientific forums, symposiums, conferences made famous Gudrat Ismayilzade. In these meetings, he often made interesting presentations and reports. He has participated in scientific conferences in Moscow, Leningrad (now St. Petersburg), Ashgabat, Baku, Tbilisi, Irevan, Tabriz, Tehran, Berlin, Saarbrück, Astana and other cities. He is the author of nearly 200 scientific articles, monographs and scientific books on archeology and ancient world history.
