UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA
AND RUSSIAN SCIENTISTS
CO-OPERATING RESEARCH
Negotiations at Moscow for Joint
Work in Bering Strait Area
Completed
A project for Soviet and .Am
erican cooperative archaeological
research in the Bering Straits
region is now being negotiated
by the University of Alaska and
the National Academy of Scien
ces in the U. S. R. R.
Professor Froelich Rainel has
recently returned from Moscow
where he represented the Uni
versity of Alaska in their nego
tiations and assisted in formulat
ing a plan to initiate combined
archaeological investigations in
northeastern Siberia and north
western Alaska during the com
, ing summer.
Soviet anthropologists, who
have carried out extensive arch
aeological investigations in a
large part of Siberia during the
last 20 years, are keenly interest
ed in the origin and cultural de
velopment of Arctic peo-ples in
cluding the Eskimo a/nd recog
nize the necessity of combined
research in the Bering Straits
area where Asia and America
are separated only by a sixty
mile strait.
Large archaeological collections
excavated by Soviet scientists in
Siberia, which are now in the
museums of Moscow, Leningrad
and Irkutsk are to be correlated
with those excavated in Alaska,
while further investigations on
both sides of the Strait under
combined leadership, are propos
ed.
Soviet settlement and indus
trial development of the Siber
ian Arctic more than parallels
that in Alaska during the last
few years. As a result, the in
creased population and the more
efficient means of communica
tion make these investigations
more practicable than at any
other time in the history of both
the Siberian and the American
Arctic.
