This project promotes the advancement and dissemination of knowledge pertaining to 18th and 19th century Russian colonies in North America (Russian America). Through a multifaceted approach with Russian colleagues, the investigators will explore and interpret relationships between central Siberia and Russian America through cooperative archaeological fieldwork, workshops, examination of museum collections, and educational initiatives. The project seeks to build an international community including students, investigators, cultural resource managers, and Native American groups affected by colonial Russian influences.Scholars from Irkutsk, Russia, are ideal research partners. During the 18th and 19th centuries, Irkutsk was one of the most important cities in Siberia and was key to the expansion of the Russian fur trade into North America. Although the Irkutsk region produced a wide range of exports for Russian America, this has not been addressed through comparative studies of archaeological materials. This project will allow American scholars to participate in joint archaeological work in central Siberia. In Alaska and California, Russian and American scholars, along with interested members of Native and student groups, will have an opportunity to exchange information through several small, hands-on workshops in communities associated with Russian America. This will ultimately broaden the understanding of Russian America and its historic central Siberian connections. The information will be disseminated to professional and public audiences through cooperative museum exhibits, professional papers, the collection of relevant Native oral history, and the promotion of a 'sister museums' program for U.S. and Siberian museums that interpret Russian America.

该项目旨在促进有关18世纪和19世纪俄罗斯在北美殖民地（俄属美洲）的知识的进步和传播。 通过与俄罗斯同事的多方面方法，研究人员将通过合作考古实地考察，研讨会，博物馆收藏品检查和教育计划来探索和解释西伯利亚中部与俄属美洲之间的关系。 该项目旨在建立一个国际社区，包括学生，调查人员，文化资源管理人员和受俄罗斯殖民影响的美洲原住民群体。来自俄罗斯伊尔库茨克的学者是理想的研究合作伙伴。 在18世纪和19世纪，伊尔库茨克是西伯利亚最重要的城市之一，是俄罗斯毛皮贸易扩展到北美的关键。 虽然伊尔库茨克地区为俄属美洲生产了广泛的出口产品，但这并没有通过考古材料的比较研究来解决。 该项目将允许美国学者参与西伯利亚中部的联合考古工作。 在阿拉斯加和加州，俄罗斯和美国学者，沿着土著和学生团体感兴趣的成员，将有机会通过与俄裔美国人有关的社区的几个小型实践讲习班交流信息。 这将最终扩大对俄属美洲及其历史上的西伯利亚中部联系的了解。 这些信息将通过合作博物馆展品、专业论文、相关土著口述历史的收集以及促进美国和西伯利亚博物馆的“姐妹博物馆”计划向专业和公众受众传播。
