Alby-Yerdy Temple

The Alby-Yerdy (Ingush: Альби-Ерды; Georgian: ალბი-ერდი) are the ruins of the medieval temple in Ingushetia, located on the left bank of the Assa River. As a result of a radiocarbon study, scientists date the architectural monument to 668-974. Following the opinion of most researchers, the temple is recognized as a Christian church, although numerous remains of sacrificial animals were found inside the church, indicating rituals of ancient Ingush religion.
