Moscow City Guides and Media

Nightlife, arts and culture listings for moscow.

The Moscow Times english-language newspaper publishes a weekly listing of events, also available on their website: www.themoscowtimes.com/arts_n_ideas/calendar/

Another good English-language resource is A-A-AH  – www.a-a-ah.com/events-in-moscow – which has a good clubs listings and publishes interesting cultural events.

Your best way, though, is to go on Facebook pages of the places we recommend in our Moscow Guide and check out what's on there. We post the most interesting events on our Way to Russia Facebook Page as well, so check it out occasionally!

A great listing of public lectures, seminars, workshops and conferences happening in Moscow is available on Theory and Practice portal – www.tandp.ru – even though it's in Russian you can find really interesting talks on Russian cinema, software development, literary studies and anything else you want on there.

Among the Russian listings, Afisha (www. afisha.ru ) magazine is the most popular one.  While being slightly pretentious, it provides a lot of information and has good nightlife and art listings.

Another interesting newspaper is Bolshoy Gorod – www.bg.ru – which is distributed for free and has extensive listings. They also have a blog for each area of Moscow (in Russian).

Finally, Look At Me - www.lookatme.ru – is a sure source to find some party or exhibition you like.

Newspapers & Magazines

In english language,   in russian language.

The weekly Komsomolka is the local version of the UK Sun, but intelligentsia (smart people) prefer the free Bolshoy Gorod, which is a bit like the local version of The Village Voice, but not as big.

The "mainstream" fashion is determined by bi-weekly Afisha ( www.afisha.ru ) magazine.

The weekly Expert ( www.expert.ru ) and Itogi ( www.itogi.ru ) magazines provide comprehensive business, finance, and politics analysis.

The monthly magazines are anything from Playboy to Forbes, and from Cosmopolitan to The Rolling Stone.

Foreign Press

You can buy foreign magazines and newspapers in Moscow. Usually, they are sold in 5-star hotels, but the prices there are much too high. Also, you can try some newstands in the city (especially on Tverskaya St.), but the prices are high also, and the selection is poor.

However, there's a couple of places in Moscow, where you can get almost any magazine or newspaper, in English and in other languages. 1. Maxim's News Stand. They have everything, if they don't -- you can order. Prices are lower than on the cover. Also, they sell books and movies in English. Metro: Savyolovskaya (grey line, north center), Address: Nizhnyaya Maslovska, #2 (an underground pass near Savyolovskaya metro). Open hours: Mon-Sat 11.00 to 19.30 2. Arbat Supermarket. Just next to the entrance they sell some English-language magazines and fresh newspapers. Metro: Arbatskaya. Address: Novy Arbat st, Novoarbatsky supermarket - grocery store (there's only one, the entrance is on the street side). 3. Bookberry. The new Moscow book supermarket has an extensive section of foreign magazines and newspapers at moderate prices. Metro: Arbatskaya, Tverskaya (blue, purple line). Address: Boulevard Ring (walk from Novy Arbat towards Pushkinskaya square along Zubovsky boulevard and the shop will be to your left). Open hours: Mon-Sun 10.00-20.00

4. Gorbushka. The famous Moscow pirate CD, DVD, Software and official electronics market specializes in foreign music and DJ magazines. Address: metro Bagrationovskaya (Moscow west), a large building outside the exit - the crowds walks in its direction. Open hours: Mon-Sun 10.00-20.00 If for some reason you can't buy the thing you need in any of the shops above, try to go to some European or American medical or dental center - they have a great selection of magazines in their reception areas.

The EXTINCT

Seven russian dinosaurs: gone but not forgotten.

For nearly 150 years the Earth belonged to them. Gargantuan and tiny. Gregarious and solitary. Overgrown with bone armor or with gentle fluff. These dinosaurs, or, literally, “terrible lizards” populated the whole planet. Except for what is now the territory of Russia. At least, this had been the common belief up to the beginning of last century. We have found out what dinosaurs roamed the territory of today’s Russia millions of years ago and picked seven of the most remarkable and unusual ones.

The first dinosaurs appeared on Earth about 233 million years ago. Had we been able to travel back in time, we would have hardly recognized our planet. In the Triassic, instead of today’s six continents that we are used to, one supercontinent existed called Pangaea, where these “terrible lizards” began to feel at home with the passage of time.

Whenever we mention Russia’s dinosaurs, we have in mind animals whose petrous fossils * continue to be found on the territory of our country nowadays. Regrettably, continental sediments have not been passed down to us from those years, so the chances of ever discovering any bones of Triassic reptiles are close to none.

In the Jurassic period, Pangaea began to break apart into Gondwana and Laurasia, with vast areas of land getting flooded. A large share of what is now Russia’s European territory disappeared under water. Dinosaurs settled on the islands, while pliosaurs, plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurs lived in the Central Russian Sea — warm and shallow.

In the media, the word ‘dinosaur’ is often used in relation to not only ground lizards, but flying and aquatic ones as well. This is wrong. Dinosaurs lived exclusively on the ground, while pterosaurs and sea reptiles were their relatives (the latter — very distant ones).

In the land of what is now Siberia, dinosaurs felt quite comfortable. For most part of the Jurassic, this region was warm and humid. In Russia, several sites dating back to that period are known.

In the Cretaceous geological period, the climate became drier and winters colder, but there were no extreme temperatures yet, even in the Arctic. For instance, 70 million years ago, summertime air temperatures in the Chukchi Peninsula were at about +20° C, and in wintertime they dropped to + 3° C.

The Chukchi Peninsula’s air temperatures 70 million years ago: roughly +20°C in summer and +3°C in winter.

Apparently, dinosaurs lived permanently in the North Pole region, as is evidenced by the eggshells and bones of cubs found in the Chukchi locality of Kakanaut. It is not very clear, however, what the herbivorous animals used for food during the polar night, when ferns and shrubs stopped growing. There is a hypothesis that some Australian dinosaurs hibernated for the winter. Perhaps, their Russian counterparts did the same.

For a long time, practically no dinosaur bones were found in our country. There are several reasons for this. Firstly, large swaths of Russia’s land are covered by forests or lie in permafrost zones, for which reason geological deposits suitable for examination are not available to paleontologists. At the same time, the main "providers" of dinosaur fossils — the United States, Canada and China — occupy large areas of the so-called "badlands". There is no vegetation or fertile soil hiding them. The geological strata are bare.

Secondly, Siberia and the Far East are sparsely populated. Dinosaur graveyards are often found during excavation work, the way it happened in Blagoveshchensk, where a large number of fossils was unearthed within the city limits while builders were digging a foundation pit. Populated areas in this region are few, so the territory remains largely unexplored.

And thirdly, competent personnel are hard to come by. The country’s largest paleontological centers are in Moscow and St. Petersburg, yet qualified specialists in the regions are scarce.

And still, regardless of the difficulties encountered, dinosaurs are found in Russia every year. Scientists joke that the secret of any expedition’s success is to dig for the fossils where they really are.

But searching for and finding fossils is only a tiny part of a paleontologist’s job. Examining bones, describing their features and trying to understand what animal species they belonged to is what researchers do most of the time.

Over the past 150 years, paleontologists have managed to put together a large database. It contains detailed descriptions of thousands of finds from all over the world, including dinosaur bones. This database is the main resource specialists rely on in their work. Even a fragmentary find — a vertebra, a tooth, or a fragment of a skull — if compared with the already described fossils, makes it possible to determine which group the animal belonged to, and sometimes even to recreate its original look. Growth rings in the bones can tell us a lot about the conditions in which the dinosaur lived, the structure of its teeth and traces of abrasion indicate how and what kind of food the animal chewed, and the coprolites (fossilized excrement) provided an idea of ​​the animal’s diet.

Tomography has been a priority trend in paleontology in recent decades. It provides an insight into the bones without damaging them. For example, by scanning the skull with a tomograph it is easy measure the length of the cochlea, thus finding out the sound frequencies at which the animals communicated with each other.

Over the past 30 years, perhaps, a little bit more, our understanding of dinosaurs has changed radically. For example, it was previously believed that they were cold-blooded animals with hard scales. Now, scientists state with certainty that most — if not all dinosaurs — were warm-blooded, and many of them were covered with feathers. In some cases, even their color is known. The discovery and examination of melanosomes — the cell components containing pigments — provided the clue. Paleontologists have compared their shape to similar structures in the feathers of modern birds.

There is a scientific hypothesis that birds are today’s dinosaurs. Scientists now call the extinct dinosaurs non-avian . So, the next time you’re feeding pigeons in the park, take a closer look at them.

Russia’s last non-avian dinosaur disappeared about 66 million years ago, but now interest in these animals in our country is greater than ever before. And, according to paleontologists, many discoveries are in store for us in the foreseeable future.

Kulindadromeus zabaikalicus

The oldest of the feathered dinosaurs.

In 2010, paleontologists from all over the world heard about the Kulinda Valley in the Trans-Baikal Territory. It was there that geologist Sofia Sinitsa discovered the fossils of an unknown herbivorous feathered dinosaur. Scientists knew about the existence of feathered dinosaurs before, but it was generally believed that all of them were beasts of prey. This find also changed the scientists’ ideas about the evolution of the outer coverings — the Trans-Baikal lizard turned out to be the oldest feathered creature known to science.

Four years later, an international group of scientists, which included Russian specialists, published an article about a unique animal in Science magazine. It was named Kulindadromeus ( Kulindadromeus zabaikalicus ).

Just a month later, Russia’s Paleontological Journal published another article on the bones from Kulinda. According to its authors — paleontologist Vladimir Alifanov and biologist Sergei Savelyev — the found fossils belonged not to one animal, but two. The scientists named them Kulindapteryx ukureica and Daurosaurusolovus . However, Kulindadromeus remained the dinosaur’s official name.

The paleontologists managed to determine the animal’s appearance largely because in the middle of the Jurassic Kulinda was an active volcanic zone. During eruptions, hot ash fallouts buried the dinosaurs’ bodies. The skin and even bones burned up, but the bodies left cavities inside the ash mass, with the dinosaurs’ outer coverings imprinted on the walls. Archaeologists saw something similar during excavations in Pompeii. Deep inside the rock, they found hollows left by the bodies of those who perished in the volcanic eruption.

The hind limbs, palms of the forepaws, and the long tail of the Kulindadromeus were covered with scales. Feathers grew on its head, chest, body and thighs. Some of them resembled thin threads and were no longer than 1 cm in length, while others were wider and longer — up to 3 cm. The dinosaur also had fluff, like that of the Silkie (a Chinese silk chicken). The Kulindadromeus did not have flight feathers and was unable to fly. The outer coverings helped the animal maintain a normal body temperature and at the same time served for transmitting signals to other animals, for example, warnings of an approaching predator.

In 2016, the Kulindadromeus appeared on the flag and the coat of arms of the Trans-Baikal Region’s Chernyshevsky District, and in 2020 the Kulinda Valley was granted the status of a specially protected natural site.

Where it can be seen:

Kileskus aristotocus

The ancestor of that very tyrannosaurus.

Even those barely familiar with paleontology have heard about the Tyrannosaurus ( Tyrannosaurus rex ), which lived on the territory of what is know today as North America at the end of the Cretaceous period. But very few know that the first tyrannosauroids appeared in Asia about a hundred million years earlier, and the most ancient of them — the Kileskus — was a native of the Krasnoyarsk Region. However, the Russian dinosaur was not the direct ancestor of the T-Rex. Rather, it can be described as its uncle or even a great-uncle.

The first part of the scientific name (called genus) — Kileskus  — is derived from the Khakass word kileski — "lizard", and the second part of it, the specific epithet — aristotocus  — is translated from Latin as "noble". Scientists found fragments of such a dinosaur’s skeleton in the Berezovsky surface coal mine: on a relatively small site, they discovered fragments of the upper and lower jaws, as well as bones of the front and hind limbs, including large sickle-shaped claws.

Like other theropods (carnivorous dinosaurs), the Kileskus walked on two legs, which gave him certain advantages in hunting four-legged herbivores. Paleontologists speculate that its body may have been covered with down-like feathers, their main function being to maintain body temperature.

The closest relatives of the Sharypovo tyrannosauroid — the Chinese Guanlong and Sinotyrannus, as well as the British Proceratosaurus — had a bone crest on the head. What this crest was used for remains unclear. Perhaps, with its help males attracted females the way roosters do. Their relative, the Kileskus, possibly had such a crest, too, but since the upper part of the dinosaur’s skull has not been found yet, there is no material confirmation of this.

Stegosauria indet. *

Survived the jurassic in siberia.

Perhaps no book on paleontology is complete without the Stegosaur — a hump-backed herbivorous animal with a spiked tail adorned with bone plates. Some stegosaurs lived on the territory of Russia.

In 2005, in the vicinity Sharypovo, a locality near the city of Krasnoyarsk, paleontologists discovered many stegosaur bones, which they put together to assemble an almost complete skeleton. After studying the fossils, scientists came to the conclusion that it was not just a newly discovered species, but also the oldest stegosaur ever found. It turned out to be about 7 million years older than its North American relatives. Unfortunately, the skull was not found. In the meantime, this part of the skeleton is extremely important for scientific classification. For now, in all paleontological data bases, the "Sharypovo lizard’ is listed as Stegosauria indet. — stegosaurus undetermined.

The skeleton on display at the Krasnoyarsk Museum of Local Lore, was nicknamed JuraShKa (abbreviated from the Jurassic period, Sharypovo and the Krasnoyarsk Territory). By all standards this stegosaur was very small: 4 meters in length, while the largest members of this family grew up to 9 meters.

Some stegosaur bones, or rather teeth, have been found on the banks of the Teete stream in Yakutia. This location is remarkable for several reasons. Firstly, the finds made there date back to the early Cretaceous. Elsewhere, the stegosaurus became extinct in the Late Jurassic. Only the inhabitants of this peculiar Siberian refuge survived much longer (biologists call such areas refugia).

Secondly, it was previously believed that the stegosaur was unable to chew at all. Its teeth looked too weak and small to be able to grind branches, leaves and ferns. It was assumed that the animal simply swallowed the plucked vegetation, which was eventually ground in the stomach with swallowed stones. However, the find in Yakutia proved that the stegosaur eventually developed the ability to chew food: Russian paleontologists identified very special abrasions on the animal’s teeth.

Finally, in Teete, paleontologists found very small teeth that belonged to cubs. This is clear evidence that the dinosaurs lived and reproduced in this circumpolar region for a rather long time.

In addition to Sharypovo and Teete, stegosaur fossils were found in the localities of Kalbak-Kyry (Tuva), Shestakovo (Kemerovo Region), as well as on the rivers Bolshoi Ilek, Bolshoi Kemchug and Bolshaya Terekhtyul (the Krasnoyarsk Region).

Diplodocoidea indet. *

A dinosaur from the central russian sea.

Diplodocoids are one of the largest land animals that have ever roamed our planet. The Supersaur (Supersaurus vivianae) that was found in the US was 34 meters long from the snout to the tip of the tail. Some Diplodocoids were also found in Russia: the remains of a lizard, though a far smaller one — no more than 10 meters long — were unearthed in the Peski sand quarry near Moscow. Regrettably, it is not yet possible to determine which family this particular animal belonged to. The morphology of the vertebrae indicates that it was closer to the Dicreosaurids (Dicraeosauridae) — animals with relatively short necks. The later members of the family had long spikes. For the time being, in scientific papers, the dinosaur found near Moscow is referred to as the Diplodocoidea indet. (diplodocoids undetermined).

The tail vertebrae of the animal had been discovered back in 1997 by Alexander Vydrik, a student of the Geological Department of the Moscow State University. For more than 20 years they were on display in the museum of the Moscow City Club of Young Naturalists as "vertebrae of a pliosaur" — an aquatic predatory reptile, which, like other inhabitants of the seas and oceans, was not a dinosaur. The error is easy to understand: most of what is now modern-day European Russia (west of the Ural Mountains) in the Mesozoic was covered by seas. Hardly anyone expected that a land animal, and for that matter even one as large as a diplodocus, could ever be found there. However, a few years ago, scientists re-examined the vertebrae and concluded that they belonged to a giant herbivore.

Presumably, the lizard lived on one of the islands in the middle of the Central Russian Sea. When the dinosaur died, its carcass was washed away into the sea, where it drifted for some time to eventually attract marine predators. Only part of its tail, which sank to the seabed, was destined to be passed down to us. Over time, it was buried under the sediments, and the vertebrae became petrified.

It is noteworthy that the lizard’s bones found in Peski are about 7 million years older than any fossils of its North American relatives. This confirms the long-standing hypothesis that the Diplodocoids, like other neosauropods, originally emerged on the territory of present-day Asia, from where they spread around the globe.

The Diplodocus led a gregarious lifestyle and fought off predators with its long tail. They ate lycopods and ferns, supplementing this diet with leaves of shrubs. Perhaps, their necks that were many meters long let them gnaw at the tops of trees, but scientists do not yet know if the Diplodocus was able to keep its neck upright. The lizard’s hind legs were noticeably longer than the front ones. Presumably, when feeding, the animals stood on two legs, thus reaching even higher branches.

Sibirotitan astrosacralis

Weighed as much as four elephants.

In 1967, the bones of some ancient animal were found on the steep, almost vertical bank of the Kiya River near the village of Shestakovo (Kemerovo Region). The fossils were sent to the Paleontological Museum in Moscow for examination. The excavation work was paused for 27 years. Meanwhile, the river bank continued to be eroded, and eventually the bones fell into the river, and were carried away by water.

Paleontologists made a new find only in 1994, when they unearthed a claw, and a year later — and several foot bones. Then, it became clear that the dinosaur, buried deep under the surface was a real giant and, apparently, belonged to the group of sauropods — four-legged herbivorous dinosaurs with a long neck, small head and strong legs.

Over the next years, excavations were actively carried out at the Shestakovo-1 site and several teeth and vertebrae were found. But almost two more decades would pass before the dinosaur was given a name — the Siberotitan. The giant owes its specific name astrosacralis to a very special shape of the sacrum — the part of the spine that adjoins the pelvis. Literally it means "star-like sacrum". Paleontologists sometimes jokingly refer to the Siberotitan as have a "star-butt".

The animal was attributed to the group called the Titanosauroformes. By the standards of this group, the Siberotitan was relatively small — it weighed about 20 tonnes, while the mass of some of its relatives reached 60–65 tonnes. However, there is no reason to call it ordinary. The Siberotitan is the oldest sauropod ever found in Asia. In the Cretaceous, the territory of today’s Kuzbass was a semi-desert, and an herbivorous dinosaur could only feed on the banks of rivers and around lakes.

The Siberotitan’s large size served as reliable protection from most predators. Those who nevertheless dared to attack, ran the risk of being knocked down with the giant’s tail and trampled underfoot.

Psittacosaurus sibiricus

A chicken-peacock-like creature.

The Psittacosaurus, which literally means "lizard parrot", owes its name to its parrot beak-like mug. Its famous distant relative — the Triceratops (you may have seen this tri-horned dinosaur in the "Jurassic Park" movie) — had a similar beak. True, the Psittacosaurus was much smaller in size and had no impressive horns or a luxurious bone "collar".

The first skeletons of the Russian Psittacosaurs were discovered in the middle of the 20th century, but they received their specific name — sibiricus  — only in 2000. Scientists distinguish from 9 to 11 varieties of the Psittacosaurs, the Siberian being one of the largest. In 2014, this dinosaur was made the symbol the Upper Chebulinsky District and even appeared on its coat of arms.

The Psittacosaurs inhabited the edges of lakes and river banks and fed on plants. Perhaps their diet also included seeds. The dinosaurs were able to crack the hard shells with their beaks, the way parrots do. They also possessed another feature bringing them closer to modern birds: the Psittacosaurs’ teeth were weak and poorly suited for chewing hard plants. These animals, like chickens, swallowed small pebbles, which ground food in the stomach. From time to time, paleontologists find pebbles (scientifically called gastroliths) in the lizards’ abdominal cavity.

Most likely, the Psittacosaurs preferred to stay in groups and took care of their offspring. The skeletons of adult animals found next to the skeletons of cubs are a clear indication of this. The gregarious lifestyle had other benefits: it was far easier not only to notice a threat in time, but also to drive back predators who were not very large.

A special color pattern — a dark back and a light belly — increased the chances of survival. Had the skin been monochromatic, in broad daylight the lizard’s back and head would look lighter than the belly and legs, and the animal itself, thanks to this contrast, would have been easier to detect. For the defenseless Psittacosaurs, being easily noticeable would mean great exposure to danger. The special color pattern neutralized the lighting effect. This type of camouflage is called counter-shading. It is very frequent in contemporary animals.

Another interesting feature: the Psittacosaurs apparently changed the way they move over their lifetime. In young dinosaurs, both pairs of limbs were approximately the same, and it was convenient for them to run on all fours. But the older the animal grew, the longer the hind legs became. The adults, according to paleontologists, moved mainly on two legs.

The Psittacosaur’s body was covered with several types of scales. In one of the species, proto-feathers were found on the tail, sticking up like a brush. The lizards probably used them for communication — for example, to signal danger — or to attract the opposite sex the way peacocks do.

Olorotitan arharensis

Was half-deaf, had bad vision and cancer.

It is believed that the ancient lizards died in an environmental cataclysm. The Olorotitans were among the eyewitnesses and victims of the disaster, which occurred 66 million years ago.

The remains of these animals were found near the Amur village of Kundur. The dinosaur’s full skeleton excavated in 2001 had several malignant tumors, as well as numerous traces left by predators’ teeth on the lower jaw, spine, legs and tail.

The animal turned out to be an unknown member of the hadrosaurid dinosaur family, who are herbivores. They are also called platypuses due to the characteristic shape of the muzzle. It is believed that they appeared on the territory of present-day Asia, and then spread to other continents. The hadrosaurids penetrated into North America, where most of their skeletons were found, via the isthmus that had existed in the place of today’s Bering Strait.

In contrast to its closest relatives, the Kundur lizard had a more cervical vertebrae (18 versus 15) and, consequently, a longer neck. This prompted the scientific name of the genus: Olorotitan which in Latin means "giant swan".

The dinosaur stood out not only for its impressive size, but also for the crest on its head. Similar outgrowths were present in all members of the Lambeosaurinae — a subfamily to which the Olorotitan was attributed — but each variety had a unique shape and size. The Russian lizard’s head crest resembled an ax.

There are several explanations of its likely uses. According to some scientists, the bone outgrowth worked as a vocal resonator. It amplified and diversified the sounds that the dinosaurs made. Other researchers suspect that the crest aided thermoregulation or attracted the opposite sex. Also, the outgrowth might have been the location of lacrimal glands or organs generating pheromones. Lastly, it might have been an exaggerated nose.

The Olorotitan’s sense of smell, by the way, was excellent, but its eyesight and hearing left much to be desired. Scientists learned that from the unearthed skull’s CT scan.

The teeth are another special feature of the hadrosaurids. Platypus dinosaurs had several hundred of them, renewed throughout the animals’ lifetime. The Olorotitans literally plowed the edges of rivers and lakes with their beaks, catching algae, small crustaceans and mollusks, and then chewed food together with the silt. Naturally, their teeth did not last long, but new ones grew in a matter of weeks.

For quite a while, it was believed that the hadrosaurids led a semi-aquatic lifestyle. The membranes on their paws helped them swim on the surface of the water. Later studies indicated that these dinosaurs had little hooves on their front feet and pads on their hind legs — looking very much like a camel’s foot.
