The paper is devoted to the objects of Oriental art dating from the 10 th - 14 th cc. found in the territory of Byelorussia. A series of categories are considered: glass and clay vessels, silk textiles, metal and bone objects (Figs. 1-3). The author presents the results of studying museum collections, new finds, and checking up attribution of already known objects. This work gives grounds to suggest some new interpretations and corrections for the corpus of Oriental finds known from Byelorussia.
