Abstract
The activities of the Society for the Protection and Preservation of Monuments of Art and Antiquity in Russia, which launched a multifaceted work on the Crimean Peninsula in 1909—1917, are considered. The stages of preparation by the devotees of the monument protection sphere of a unique card file of cultural heritage objects in the territory of Crimea are shown. Special attention is paid to the activities in this direction of K. F. Bogaevsky, N. I. Repnikov, M. I. Rostovtsev. Attention is paid to the attempts of employees to establish the correct organization of the archaeological research of Chersonese. An interesting fact is the Society’s support for the petition of archaeologists to establish a museum in Evpatoria and organize a museum in the Khan’s Palace of Bakhchisaray. The novelty of the study is seen in the fact that for the first time in historiography, the activities of the organization for the study, fixation and protection of the Crimean archeological monuments in the southern region of the empire are revealed. The relevance of the study is due to the interest in the experience of the Society on a global scale. The author draws attention to the fact that, despite the loss in the revolutionary years of the unique monument card files collected by art historians and archaeologists, its Crimean part is partially duplicated in the personal archival fund of the organizer of the scientific study of Crimea A. I. Markevich.
