- Abstract
- The data of the mineralogical research of the stone sarcophagus and the tombstone of Patriarch Nikon (died in 1681) in The Resurrection Cathedral of the New Jerusalem monastery is published in the article. The samples for the studies were received during the excavations of the Institute of Archaeology of Russian Academy of Science in 2012. The material of the works was identified as gypsum (alabaster) which corresponds to the mention in Patriarch's hagiography. Two possible development areas in Russia are being suggested, the beds in the region of Arkhangelsk and Nizhniy Novgorod historically connected to the life of the Patriarch.
