Abstract. The very article is devoted to the search, analysis, and introduction into scientific circulation of documents about the activities of the Far Eastern Regional Research Institute (DVKNII), a scientific institution that existed in Vladivostok in 1923–1931, the activities of which remain little studied in historiography. One of the obstacles to studying the history of DVKNII can be called the lack of information about the safety and location of its archive. In the Vladivostok archives, documents on the activities of the Institute are represented only in single copies, and the fund of the same name in the Russian State Historical Archive of the Far East contains only 8 files on the Institute. The closure of DVKNII in 1931 and the creation on its basis of the Far Eastern Branch of the USSR Academy of Sciences naturally led to the idea of transferring the archives of the Institute to a new institution, therefore, its traces had to be looked for through the Academy of Sciences. As a result of searches, the documents were discovered in the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow), where they apparently ended up after the vicissitudes of the 1930s. The body of documents remaining after the liquidation of DVKNII includes not only official organizational documentation, but also more than 300 works by Far Eastern scientists and specialists. The article gives a brief overview of them, examines in more detail the large report of the DVKNII for 1928–1929, previously known only in the form of the publication of an explanatory note in the “Scientific News of the Far East” bulletin (1929), and provides an analysis of information about the personnel of the institute. For the first time, the previously unknown work of V. K. Arsenyev, “The Experience of Classifying Ancient Monuments in the Ussuri Region”, is being introduced into scientific circulation.
Keywords: Far Eastern Regional Research Institute (Vladivostok), Far Eastern science, Archives, V.K. Arsenyev.
