Gennadii Borisovich Zdanovich (Russian: Геннадий Борисович Зданович; 4 October 1938 – 19 November 2020) was a Russian archaeologist based at the historical site of Arkaim, Chelyabinsk.
Zdanovich led the excavation campaign at Arkaim in the Southern Urals.[1]
In the archaeology of the Sintashta culture, he introduced the term "the Country of Towns".[2]
He was a proponent of an approach which seeks to unify archaeological and ecological approaches to the environment. Such holistic approaches have been in part responsible for raising awareness of 'Arkaim' amongst followers of New Age belief systems.[citation needed]
Zdanovich died on 19 November 2020.[3]
