On 30 September 2024, Ruslan Orlov would have turned 75 years old. The anniversary gives us a good opportunity to honour the memory of the late researcher and to begin at the same time an objective study of the scientific biography of the scholar and his contribution to the development of various areas of national archaeological science.
The paper provides key biographical information about the researcher and the stages of his scientific career. Panorama of his field archaeological work is briefly presented and the archaeological research in the three chronicle cities of the Kyiv region: Yuriev (Bila Tserkva), Vasyliv (Vasylkiv), and Vyshhorod are discussed in more detail. The main directions and results of his scientific research are described. The contribution of the scientist to the study of applied art of Ancient Rus is emphasised. Being an art historian by education, Ruslan Orlov combined an art historical approach to the study of composition and subjects with the study of artefact manufacturing technology and the use of natural science methods to determine their constituent elements. The directions of monument protection, public and educational activities of the scientist are outlined. The researcher’s bibliography and a list of archival materials related to his scientific activities were collected, compiled and presented in a separate appendix to the paper and are available on the Internet (https://figshare.com/authors/__/17587569).
The proposed publication is the first attempt to outline the main points of the scholar’s scientific and intellectual biography. And the proposed bibliography of the researcher will be an important basis for further research.
