Archon reference

[Jeremy Osner]

It has a different meaning here, I know; but I was interested to see
tonight, as I was going over my *Dictionary of the Khazars* (the male
copy) in hopes of gleaning something of relevance to the NTA episode in
GRGR(16) -- one of my personal favorites -- the line, "According to a
12th-century  Russian chronicle, Oleg was already called archon of the
Khazar state by the year 1083..." Just because I had been seeing the
word Archon on the list quite a bit of late.

Eyewitnesses noted that the shadows of the houses in the capital held
their outlines for years, although the buildings themselves had already
been destroyed long before. They held fast in the wind and in the waters
of the Volga.
