The article is dedicated to a prominent scientist, public figure and administrator, Doctor of Historical Sciences Vasily Dimitrievich Dimitriev. The article traces the path of his formation as a researcher, teacher, organizer of historical education and science. The professor’s main biographical data, scientific problems developed by him are analyzed. The stages of his work at the Chuvash Research Institute of Language, Literature and History and I.N. Ulianov Chuvash State University are determined. Thanks to his brilliant analytical abilities, Vasily Dimitrievich became a specialist in Russian history, but also in ethnography, source studies and related scientific disciplines. The scientist created a whole galaxy of followers. He is considered as their teacher by 10 doctors and 40 candidates of sciences, in whose training he participated. Among the students who defended their dissertations in the last years of the scientist’s life were A.A. Chibis on the theme “Monasteries of the Right Bank of the Kazan Land in the Second Half of the XVI – First Half of the XVIII Centuries: Functioning, Land Ownership and Economy” (2011) and A.K. Kuznetsov on the theme “State Archival Service of the Chuvash Republic: the History of Reorganization and Functioning in 1991–2004” (2011). V.D. Dimitriev’s research is a notable help for historians of the neighboring regions of the Middle Volga region. The scientific heritage of Vasily Dimitrievich will be preserved for many years in the works of his followers and students, historical works and collections of documents. Despite a considerable number of published articles devoted to the scientist’s life, work, his research work, the historian’s scientific archive is valuable, which is stored in the Chuvash State Humanitarian Institute, including more than 200 volumes of various documents from the central and regional archives of the country. V.D. Dimitriev’s personal fund was passed by his will to the State Historical Archive of the Chuvash Republic. Thanks to the efforts of the scientist, the collected array of sources will enable followers to open new pages both in the history of the Middle Volga region and in the biography of the scientist.

The paper presents new data on the dating and paleogeography of the Sholma I site, which has been studied by the authors since the early 2000s on the Tsivil River in Chuvashia. Two AMS dates obtained from horse bones from the 2017 excavation: 10838-10717 Cal BC (95,4%) (UOC-8154) и 11131-10846 Cal BC (95,4%) (UOC-8155) confirmed the authors ' opinion expressed in 2009 that the site of the final Paleolithic functioned in the natural conditions of the interstadial warming of the Allerød at the end of the ice Age. Results of a soil study of samples in 2017, in particular, analyzes for the content of gross phosphorus and microbiomorphs carried out by A. A. Golyeva are highlighted. Analogies to the features of the blade stone industry and trapezoid inserts of throwing weapons in the sites of the Pleistocene and Holocene boundary are revealed. As a result, the authors have outlined two possible directions of communication of specialized hunters who came to the Middle Volga region with a characteristic set of combat weapons in the conditions of interstadial warming. It could be south-east and south-west directions. The south-eastern one is represented by complexes with trapezia of the lower layers of the Shiderty 3 site in north-eastern Kazakhstan and the Gora Mayak settlement in the Samara trans-Volga region, and the south-western one – by the sites with trapezia and other forms of inserts that existed during Allerød in the valleys of the Seversky Donets and the Middle Don.

The origins of design lie in the traditional forms of design culture of pre-industrial societies, expressed in handicrafts and folk crafts. Sledges and carts production (and the associated manufacture of wheels and rims) on the Middle Volga, as well as throughout Russia in the mid-19 – first half of the 20 centuries, was a common and traditional type of craft activity, handicraft. Due to the multi-ethnicity of the region, we can talk about its small local features — the specifics of production processes, decor, and the ethnic division of labor. The exchange of cultural forms led to the typification of tools and techniques in the sledges and carts production of all ethnic groups of the Middle Volga — Mordovians, Tatars, Chuvashs. The reasons for this alignment are the practical benefits and long cohabitation of peoples in the region, which through cross-borrowing determined the general economic structure and nature of the project culture. Sledges and carts production of the Middle Volga region from the mid-19 – first half of the 20 centuries was realized through traditional design forms (sledges such as dróvni, rózval`ni, koshévny`e; carts such as pólok, ry`dván, dolgúsha, drógi, tarantás). The paper pays particular attention to the analysis of their manufacturing technologies. The study of various aspects of the sledges and carts production of the Middle Volga region will allow enriching theoretical ideas in the field of studying the traditional design culture of the region. Some of the points and conclusions of the study may be useful in designing an urban environment.

Introduction. For its centuries-old history, in the development of various branches of scientific knowledge, Russia has relied on scientific schools – leading centers that determine the prospects for the development of science, its goals, objectives, strategic priorities, designed to unite and strengthen the work of scientists on certain issues. In the late 80s and early 90s of the last century, the researchers of our country addressed the problem of socio-economic development, attempts to identify the causes of their occurrence, to determine the ways out of the current situation, became the impetus for the creation of the Centers for Economic History. The purpose of the article is to study the history of formation, development, determination of the main directions of activity, analysis of the work and functioning of the Center for Economic History of the Central Russia and the Middle Volga Region at Mordovia State University. Materials and Methods. When solving the set research tasks, the materials of the Center for Economic History of Central Russia and the Middle Volga Region, information and analytical bulletins, conference programs, reports, scientific works of the team, reviews, analytical reviews were used. The article uses a micro historical approach, narrative, traditional methods of historical research. Results. The expediency of creating the Center is due to the processes that took place in many vital spheres of Russia, including science and education. The main purpose of the Center was the reproduction and generation of historical, historical and economic knowledge and knowledge of social and humanitarian informatics, as well as their transfer to the system of training bachelors, undergraduates, highly qualified personnel and the modern humanitarian space. Discussion and Conclusion. At the present stage, the economic history of the Republic of Mordovia is known to the wide scientific community largely due to the activities of the Center, which is represented in the Scientific Council of the Russian Academy of Sciences on the problems of Russian and world economic history. Over the years, the scientists of the Center have accumulated significant experience in studying economic history, organizing and conducting scientific events, publishing, expanding the boundaries of scientific research, acquiring scientific connections and contacts. All this allows the staff of the Center to continue further research aimed at the formation of the humanitarian space and socio-cultural environment of modern society.

Main Factor

The Neogene river valleys of the Middle Volga region are widespread, and their location mainly corresponds to the modern river network. This indicates the sustainability of development of river valleys during Neogene-Quaternary time. The Neogene river network was laid in the Late Miocene. The main rivers on the studied area were Paleo-Volga and Paleo-Kama. The article presents the results of the study of the value and direction of the displacement of modern valley’s cuts in relation to Neogene ones during Quaternary period within the territory of Tatarstan. The data on the displacement of the watershed lines are given. The material for the study was obtained on the basis of data analysis of the geological survey, literary and cartographic sources. Reconstruction of the position of the Neogene paleo-valleys was carried out using geoinformation mapping methods. The analysis of the displacement values of the modern valleys relatively to the Neogene ones allows us to conclude that in the Quaternary time the right-side displacement was predominant. The main factor which impacts on the displacement is Coriolis force. This is especially clearly seen on large and medium-sized rivers, where the value of displacement directly depends on the size of the watercourse. Displacement on large rivers averages 15 to 50 km, on medium-sized rivers - 12 to 15 km, on small rivers these values do not exceed 3.0 to 5.0 km. Changes in the main watershed lines in the Quaternary period are also associated with right-hand displacement. This trend is disrupted due to the increasing role of other factors, primarily lithological and tectonic. Namely these factors affect the left-side cuts offset, as well as the reduction or increase of the displacement value. The role of other factors is not so pronounced.

Introduction of women’s ego-documents (diaries) into scientific use as is an urgent task of gender anthropology and history of everyday life. 179 diaries of the surgeon Zinaida Sedelnikova, found in the State Archive of the Volgograd Region, are a comprehensive documentary source for studying women’s everyday life in one of the cities of the Middle Volga region. It allows us to reveal features of the daily life of a non-capital city through the prism of female perception. The authors set themselves the task of analyzing in detail a document that reflected the everyday life of a city dweller in a non-capital city in the Middle Volga region that was reviving after the war. In the course of the work, historical-comparative, biographical (biography as case analysis), aggregative methods have been used. The author of diaries lived for 60 years in Volgograd, studied and worked there as a doctor. Her way of thinking, value system, everyday practices have interested the participants of a collective project for studying the characteristics of Russian female social memory. The records dating from 1951 to 1969 (notebooks no. 35–85) depict professional, home, family, everyday, and festive life of the Soviet provincial city in its repeatability and rhythm. The diaries contain detailed descriptions of foraging (food and non-food products) in the provincial Soviet city, housing conditions, household life (cleaning methods, simple recipes preserved in oral tradition or borrowed from newspapers and magazines are listed), impressions of leisure activities, relationships with relatives and friends. An emotional, sometimes poetic description of events (the author rhymed and wrote down poems in her diary) is revealed through the prism of female perception. This allows us recreate the provincial female life; photographs, newspaper clippings, calendars, telegrams, letters, theater booklets, event tickets, shreds of fabrics, herbarium present the details of everyday life and help to analyze the identity of a women from amongst the intellectual elite of the Soviet city of the 1950–1960s.
