The review assesses the significance of A. I. Kopytov and V. M. Kimeev’s new monograph dedicated to the development of Mountain Shoria and its indigenous people – the Shor ethnos. The monograph describes the stages of the development of the Shor people, as well as the local administrative and territorial transformations. It gives a retrospective of Shoria as an object of scientific research and outlines the problem of the local industrial development. The authors assessed the prospects of museumification of the historical and cultural heritage. The present review compares A. I. Kopytov and V. M. Kimeev’s contribution to the study of Mountain Shoria with that of their predecessors and states the apparent value of the monograph.
