Eugene Golomshtok (born Eugenii Alexandrovich Golomshtok, Russia, 1897-1950) was a Russian émigré anthropologist, photographer, and authority on permafrost. He studied archaeology with Bruno Adler in Russia before he received his MA from University of California at Berkeley in 1923, where he was also the photographer of Phoebe Hearst Museum of Anthropology, studied under Speck at the University of Pennsylvania Museum in the late 1920 where is he received his Ph.D. in 1935. In 1933 he was one of a few young anthropologists who were allowed to travel and study in Leningrad, and was part of a joint team of the University of Pennsylvania and the State Academy for the History of Material Culture, Leningrad excavating Esske-Kermen, one of the 'cave cities' in the Crimea which had been identified with Douros, the old capital of the Goths. He taught courses in the Anthropology and Archaeology of Siberia at Columbia University. Golomshtok's photographs can be found in a number of Museums. In 1938, he published his 1935 dissertation, a highly praised survey 'The Old Stone Age in European Russia' which he hoped would be of interest to the who did not read Russian. At the time of his early death he was engaged in a study of permafrost and at work on the compilation of an Arctic Encyclopedia for naval use (The Encyclopedia Arctica was a proposed 20-volume reference work on the northern arctic and subarctic regions, funded from 1947-1951). The archive relates to the many facets of his career: photographer, teacher, and researcher in anthropology, ethnography, folklore, the Russian and Arctic regions. Contents: I. Glass Slides: 319 glass slides, some original, though most are likely taken from Russian books and publications, concerning Russian anthropology. The collection includes general views of a variety of locations, such as Altai and Afanasievo, as well as a series of regional maps. Additionally, there are many slides depicting regional pottery and other artifacts, burial sites, and Neolithic fishing tools. Slides are divided into groups: one numbered 1-233 (*with 16 missing*); 25 named slides, 31 unlabeled, 33 split into Roman Numeral derived categories, 15 with silvercasing, and 8 duplicates. Three sets of notes on index cards are included. The first provides notes for slides numbered 84-103, and the second references the maps, people, pottery, homes, trees, and roads. The third set is an unlabeled reference. II. Photographs: Seven small black and white images (2 copies of each), primarily of artifacts. III. Film Negatives Over 300 35mm black and white negatives divided between ten packs. The collection contains several original images of landmarks and people, but most of the content is derived from books or exhibits; a number of which are in the slide series. IV.

(1) "Arctic Institute Bibliography Permafrost": Contains over 200 entries, typed & alphabetized, on the topic of permafrost, and its impact on infrastructure, economics, seismology, and surveying. (2) "Arctic Institute Suggestions": Contains more than 300 typed & handwritten entries.

(5) "Yakut Glossary": Hundreds of terms and idioms, handwritten, including ceremonial language and geographical details. V.
