Aleksei P. Okladnikov: The Great Explorer of the Past is about the life and works of Aleksei P. Okladnikov (1908 1981), a prominent archaeologist who spent more than 50 years studying prehistoric sites in various parts of the Soviet Union  mainly in Siberia and Central Asia as well as in Mongolia. Okladnikov made numerous fascinating discoveries in the 1930s, including the first Neanderthal remains in the USSR at Teshik Tash (Uzbekistan) and unique figurines at the Upper Palaeolithic site of Buret in the Angara River basin (Eastern Siberia). His research and achievements are presented on the background of ideological campaigns inspired by the Communist Party in the 1920s1950s, a subject that is very rarely described in non-Russian sources. Particular attention is given to the debunking of the Japhetic theory and the new doctrine of language developed by Nikolai Y. Marr, an Oriental scholar and specialist in languages who in the 1920searly 1930s was a formal leader of Soviet archaeology. Marrs principles of linguistic studies were mechanically transmitted to several fields of the humanities, including archaeology, and were mandatory for every Soviet scholar. In 1950 an abrupt end to Marrs theories was enacted by Josef Stalin. Details of these events  important for development of archaeology, ancient history, and linguistics in the USSR  were never previously described.

The book is for archaeologists, historians, and everyone who is interested in the history of scholarship (particularly the humanities) in the twentieth century.
