Article type
Annotation	The article is devoted to the 80th anniversary of the archaeologist Igor Ivanovich Kirillov (14.12.1937– 18.06.2008). The initial stage of the scientist’s semicentennial work of the 1960s ‒ early 1970s is analyzed. The article states the history of the archaeological exploration of the Ingoda, Onon, Khilok, Chikoy Rivers which was carried out consistently according to an independently made field research plan. Special attention is given to the work on the candidate’s thesis under academician A. P. Okladnikov’s supervision. The most important research results, including the substantial completing of the regional archaeological map, the creation of a more detailed and grounded Transbaikalia ancient history periodization are reported. The article briefly describes the archaeological monuments and cultures identified by I. I. Kirillov during his semicentennial scientific activity. It is noted that the materials of the excavations of the ancient monuments made a basis of an exposition of the Transbaikalia Museum of Archaeology which was opened on October 1, 1969, at the Faculty of History and Philology of the Pedagogical Institute in Chita. Nowadays the museum bears the name of its creator. I. I. Kirillov’s scientific works were published not only in domestic publishing houses, but in the USA and China as well. In 1981 the researcher defended the doctoral thesis on the subject “Eastern Transbaikalia in the Ancient Times”, and was bestowed the title of professor. He is awarded the order “Badge of Honor” and the medal “For Service to Chita Region”.
