I haven't linked to stuff on Azatliq Radio up to now, but I want you to see these beautiful items.
Click on the above pic and there's eighteen more images. In Tatar/Cyrillic, but good pics.

Four More Crimean Images
Tatar Cemetary at Bakchasarai
Crimean Tatar Children
The Khan's Palace
"19ème
PAYSANS TARTARE DETERRANT BOULETS ET BOMBES DEVANT SEBAST"
Penza Province Card
Even this week, I said to Eni, "I wish Ebe was still alive. I have so many things to ask her."I know that she was born in Penza, but I don't know where. Penza city? Penza Province?
I don't think this card nods to the Tatars there, but here you go.
Moldy Oldies - Bosnien et Tartare
Above image is 17th Century "Bosnien et Tartare"
I've seen this strange and unflattering image before. I don't recall the context. It's labeled "Tataren". Many of these older images relate to the time when a massive chunk of Asia was referred to as "Tatary". She looks kinda drunk or sleepy.
