The Slavic World in V.M. Florinsky's "Early Slavs in the Monuments of Their Prehistoric Life"

The article dwells on V.M. Florinsky's concept of the origin and demic diffusion of the Slavs described in his book "Early Slavs in the Monuments of Their Prehistoric Life". The book consists of two parts, with the latter split into two volumes. Analysing archaeological data from the European and Asian continents, V.M. Florinsky sees the history of Siberian tribes an integral part of the Slavic history on the whole. He states that the history of European, Asian and Siberian tribes is closely connected with the general history of humankind. As Florinsky spent many decades studying archeology, his scientific views can be considered well-founded and his concept deserves further interpretation.
