The Caucasus is a strategically important region for the global and regional powers in terms of its geographical location. In the northern and southern parts of the region, which is divided by the Caucasus mountains, there are now 15 independent and autonomous political institutions of ethnic origin and a large number of different nations in terms of language, religion, and race. Many of these political entities have ethnic-based conflicts and border problems with their neighbors, which date back to the period of Tsarist Russia. These problems always keep the risk of hot conflicts that may have global and regional effects alive. Ossetians, which are accepted from the autochthonous peoples of the Caucasus, are the subjects of many of these conflict areas. The Osetians are strategically more prominent among their neighbors with some of their characteristics, especially in the case of Russia. Consequently, researches on Osseties by the Russian government started in the 18th century, and following the annexation of Georgia in 1801. Thus, so far, many academic works on Russian language, history, culture, ethnic origin, relations with neighbors have been revealed. These sources and bibliographies are important in terms of shedding light on the researches about the political, administrative and cultural development of Ossetians. In the aforementioned area Turkish studies about Ossetians or works containing information are scarce. In the mentioned fields, Turkish studies or works containing information about Ossetians are numbered. It is important to learn and use Russian sources and bibliography for the development of Ossetian studies in Turkey. These works are important to shed light on the researches about the political, administrative and cultural development of Ossetians.
