The study by the first Russian historian-Byzantinist, one of the founders of the Imperial Orthodox Palestine Society, Professor V.G. Vasilievsky (1838-1899) is a serious attempt to shed light on the origins of the term "Varangians". In examining this topic, which is still relevant today, the scholar turns to a multitude of testimonies from Byzantine chronicles, Slavic annals and Scandinavian sagas. It was Vasilievsky's work that caused a heated debate and drew public attention to the important topic of Russian-Byzantine relations. The work is published for the first time in modern orthography.
