"Our Native Antiquity": Archaeology and Aesthetics in the Culture of Russian Modernism - Studies in Russian and Slavic Literatures, Cultures, and History
Michael Kunichika
The modernists central to Our Native Antiquity located their antiquity in the Eurasian steppes, where they found objects and sites long denigrated as archaeological curiosities. The book follows the exemplary careers of two objects - the so-called ""Stone Women"" and the kurgan, or burial mound - and the attention paid to them by Russian and Soviet archaeologists, writers, artists, and filmmakers.
