The article is dedicated to the analysis of the defensive items of Caucasian warriors in the XVII - XIX centuries stocked in the collections of the Stavropol State Historical-Cultural and Natural-Landscape Museum-Reserve named after G. N. Prozritelev and G. K. Prave. The significance of the above-mentioned study of the Museum exhibits is in the fact that it allows to identify not only the level of development of productive forces in the region, but also to outline the specific features of inter-cultural, economic and political relations with the neighboring regions, as a result of which we can highlight the presence of elements of imported weapons.
