Abstract
A comparative analysis of the Khanty and Mansi descriptions, made by missionaries G. I. Novitsky and J. B. Müller in the first quarter of the 18th century, and the scientific ethnographic work of V. F. Zuev, a participant academician P. S. Pallas’s expedition in the Siberian of 1768–1774, was carried out. The conclusion is made about the thematic and actual intersections of the descriptions of the missionaries, which at the same time are author's and independent works. The originality and value of V. F. Zuev’s work as a source for studying the ethnography of the Nizhneobsky Khanty and Nenets in the early 1770s is proved.
