Congratulations to restorers on their professional holiday

Today, we celebrate the professional holiday of the most “chemically savvy” among the creative members of the Institute of Archaeology named after A.Kh. Khalikov of the Tatarstan Academy of Sciences — the restorers!

These specialists harmoniously combine a commitment to precision and meticulousness, deep knowledge of the natural sciences, a refined artistic taste, respect for cultural heritage, creative inspiration and a keen eye for the finest details.

These and other qualities were recognized by the jury of the D.S. Likhachev National Prize in Museum Studies, of which senior research fellow Polina Kaplan from the Museum of Archaeology of the Republic of Tatarstan became a finalist this year.

We wish our colleagues new and exciting professional challenges and many more ancient artifacts brought back to life!
