description At the end of the 20th century, within the framework of the Research and Production Center for the Protection and Use of Historical and Cultural Monuments of the Sverdlovsk Region (NPC SO), an urban archaeology group was created. Despite the fact that the lack of regulation of the new direction in the federal legislation made the activities of the first researchers quite complicated, for over 20 years, the NPC SO has conducted hundreds of studies in the historical sites of the Sverdlovsk Region. On the territory of Ekaterinburg, the objects of the first research were iconic historical places: the estates of the Commanders of the Ural and Siberian works G.W. de Gennin, V.N. Tatishchev and N.G. Kleopin, Mining & Metallurgical Drugstore, merchants Rastorguyevs-Kharitonovs, engineer Ipatiyev, postmaster Laishevsky, and General Kachka, merchants Ryazanovs, Zaimka of the Old Believers, etc. Explorations were also performed on a number of churches and 12 necropolises (Zarechny, Uspensky, Monastyrsky, Bogoyavlensky, Second German and others), including the burial places of the Romanov Tsar family on the Koptyakovskaya Road. Surveys were carried out at the sites of old mills: Uktussky, Ekaterinburgsky (including the Mint), Verkh-Isetsky, etc. Inspections of quarries, mines, charcoal sites and other objects began. Field researches related to the history of revolutions and the Civil War were also carried out. In recent years, the sites of mass executions and burials of victims of political repressions have been studied.
