The famous Russian traveler, geographer, ethnographer, writer, explorer of the Far East, and full member of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society, Vladimir Klavdievich Arsenyev (1872-1930) dedicated his entire life to Siberia. Arsenyev described the relief of Primorye and was the first to survey the Sikhote-Alin mountain system in detail; found the unknown sources of the largest rivers in the region and received the first information about their depths, flow regimes, and water bodies; studied the animals, birds, fish, and plants of Primorye; proved that the Nanai, Udege, and Oroch peoples were descendants of the ancient and original population of the Far East and Siberia; and recorded oral histories of the life and beliefs of the indigenous peoples of Siberia. The results of his expeditions were rich in content works written in brilliant literary language, as well as fiction books "Along the Ussuri Region", "Dersu Uzala" (they went through many editions and were translated into more than 30 languages). The film "Dersu Uzala", shot by Japanese director Akira Kurosawa, received an Oscar.
