Abstract
The article discusses three notes made by F.K. Russow, the fi rst custodian of the Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography (MAE), in the document entitled Vedomost' Redkostiam (Register of Rarities), which served as a consignment note for the combined collection of Russian seafarers of the fi rst quarter of the nineteenth century, that came from the Museum of former Admiralty Department to Kunstkamera in 1828, and eventually were inherited by MAE in 1879. The analysis of these notes together with various archival documents, reports and writings of seafarers, itineraries of sailing vessels, and published exhibits of that collection let me identify 18 items from Raivavae and Tahiti Islands as pertaining to the collecting activities by Mikhail Petrovich Lazarev, remarkable Russian naval commander of the fi rst half of the 19th century, which had taken place in 1823 during his third round-the-world sailing on the Kreiser frigate (1822-1825).
