Bogoras's work Chukchee Mythology is one of the publications of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition, undertaken in the first years of the 20th century. As the first profound anthropological descriptions of that region, they marked the beginning of a new era of research in Russia. They were an important milestone for Russian and North American anthropology that provide to this day a unique contribution to thoroughly understanding the cultures of the North Pacific rim.
