Beliaev and A.G. Veksler in the journal Rossiiskaia Arkheologiia (Russian Archaeology) from issue 3, 1996, pp. 106-133. The following review discusses major topics in this article. Moscow in early Russian chronicles : In September of 1997, Moscow celebrated the 850th anniversary of the first reference to the city in AD 1147 in the Ipatievskaya Chronicle , one of several medieval Russian collective historical works. The earliest of these was the Primary Chronicle , compiled by at least six different writer-editors. Begun by Monk Nikon in Kievan Rus in the late 11th century, and completed by Monk Nestor in AD 1118, the Primary Chronicle contains information on historic and diplomatic events, as well as treaties, deeds, and prose records of heroic legends. During the 9th and 10th centuries, Kiev became the first national capital and controlled the Russian state. At that time Moscow was an obscure and minor outpost. Moscow's AD 1147 mention in the slightly later Ipatievskaya Chronicle thus marks the beginning of the city's place in Russian history.

Footwear Reveals Russian History -- Discovery Channel -- Wordone, Wordtwo
Thousands of pairs of shoes unearthed over the years tells the story of early Moscovites. A paper coinciding with the report appears in this month's journal russian archaeology.

Extractions: The study is the first extensive analysis of the Museum of Archaeology of Moscow's footwear collection, which includes shoes from the 12th through the19th centuries. A paper coinciding with the report appears in this month's journal Russian Archaeology Among the findings is that ancient Slavs were not short, as was previously thought. Soles for men's shoes suggest that males in 16th century Moscow were about 5'6", relatively tall for the time. Dmitry Osipov, a researcher at the museum who conducted the study, theorizes that the Vyatitchi and Kryvitchi Slavic tribes that had settled the region by at least the 10th century passed down this height. The tribes were known for their tall stature, strength and athletic prowess. Osipov told Discovery News, "The Russians had a variety of footwear including shoes, boots, high boots and bast (birch) shoes." He even found evidence for orthopedic shoes dating to the 16th century. Most boots at this time had identical left and right soles. The soles of some, however, were cut differently for each foot. "The different soles were used in correcting footwear for people suffering from longitudinal flat feet," he explained.

Extractions: the Primary Chronicle Ipatievskaya Chronicle Primary Chronicle being the earliest, it was compiled by six or more writers and editors. Begun in 11th century by Monk Nikon and Kievan Rus and completed in 1118 AD by Monk Nestor. The writings mainly speak of the histories of the government including diplomacy, treaties, deeds, and records of heroic legends. These histories are important because in the later Ipatievskaya Chronicle the first mention of Moscow in Russian history is made. Before Moscow, Kiev was the first national capital of Russia in the 9th and 10th centuries. This later chronicle was put together in 1147 AD. Primary Chronicle begins with the world-famous Tale of Bygone Years'. "From whence came the Russian land, who was first to begin ruling in Kiev..." Both chronicles were housed in the Imperial Library in St. Petersburg, the first state library in Russia, during the early 1800's. Catherine II brought the idea of a state library in Russia to reality during her reign. Count Stroganov was responsible for bringing the chronicles into the collection and opening the library up for public use.

Extractions: and Technical Heritage Home Introduction Aims Activities Partners Links News Human activity in the Russian steppe as demonstrated by pollen analysis in the Kargaly region Pilar López Kargaly is a mining and metallurgical area, and played an exceptional role in the history of the peoples of Eastern Europe. Located at the extreme eastern limit of the European continent (only 50 km from the Ural River, the conventional border with Asia), Kargaly is a mining locality that covers about 500 km The postglacial vegetation history of the Kargaly region has clarified some archaeological problems and has assessed the human impact on vegetation changes in the forest-steppe zone of the North. Our present study concerns several main questions: The role of metallurgical and mining activities in the natural forest-steppe during the Late Bronze Age and the Russian period The development of agriculture during the Late Bronze Age The grazing activities in the studied region.

Extractions: Settlements and Burials in the North Margins of Nomadic World Project description This region provides a unique opportunity to explore the relationships between cultures, attribut-able to different environments. The analysis of burial grounds reveals the ex-tremely active interactions between the peripheries of Southern and Northern, Western and Eastern cultural worlds, that is usually reflected in a grave goods composition. Recent research shows that around the Silk Road there existed a system of trade routes linked to modes of traditional nomadic transmigration ( Matuchenko et all 1988; Matveeva 1995; Tairov 1995 ) Participants: This joint work gives a good opportunity for making a comparative research of fundamental regularities in human society. The collaboration allows to apply the Western methodology to the new field research in region where archaeological sites are of better manifestation. It provides a good practice for all involved spe-cialists, and also for Russian and foreign undergraduate and graduate students. The field summer school will be organized around the research project. Hence, the project provides an by new various information, coming from the area. which is still "white spot" on the archaeological maps. Finally, this project will help to bridge a gape, which still exists between the Western an Russian archaeology.

Further aims include the research and study of burials and settlements attributable to the Bronze and Iron Ages and the connections with traditional trade roads between the Middle East and Europe. Finally, it aims at studying climatic and vegetation evolution, mutations and changes in local communities of the south of Ural, the Occidental Siberia and the northern border of Kazakhstan's steppe. This archaeological project is developing on the basis of joint work of Russian and French prehistorians in collaboration with Spanish scholars . The initial step was to select the object and territory of study. The area was defined using the experience of past investigation involved a site survey and excavation in the Ural and Western Siberia. During the period covered by this report the main activities were following: * Joint field excavations

Extractions: October 2000- June 2001 Leonid Yablonskiy came to the U.S. from the Russian Academy of Sciences with over 30 years experience in archaeological excavations in Russia, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. His goal was to broaden theoretical exchange and communication between Russian and American archaeologists on both a professional and personal level. While researching and collaborating with faculty and students at the University of California at Santa Barbara, Yablonskiy made a significant effort to promote understanding among Russian and American archaeological scholars. During his time in the U.S. he also traveled to New York City, Pittsburgh, PA, Los Angeles, Berkeley, Stanford, and Ann Arbor, MI with the goal of familiarizing students and faculty with knowledge on the Early Eurasian Nomads accumulated in the course of decade-long theoretical studies and field excavations.

The catalogues include home and foreign monographs, articles from collected papers and periodicals. In addition there is a card catalogue of IHMC fellows publications and "Rossica" card catalogue with works of home archaeologists published abroad and works of foreign scientists relevant to russian archaeology. Among the librarys long time projects is one to published a series of Bibliographic indexes of soviet archaeological literature (1918-1987), 9 volumes of which have been already published. Free library access is provided for both archaeologists, scholars of other allied sciences and students nation-wide and from foreign countries. Unfortunately card catalogues available greatly limit information access and library service. The importance of the Internet as the way of communication and knowledge distribution has become evident. Creation of an electronic system and free remote access would play a big role to introduce the library's materials to the scientific community.
