Review of the monograph by Professor A.A. Nepomnyashchy “Oriental Faculty” is given in the article. Unknown pages on history of the Crimean studies, published in the Saratov publishing house “Amirat” in 2021 (volume includes 416 pages with fig.) are also revealed. The review mainly concerns materials related to the scientific, creative and social activities of famous Crimean Tatar scientists Osman-Nuri Asanovich Akchokrakly (1879–1938) and Bekir-Sytka Vagapovich Chobanzade (1893–1937). The review notes that despite of the already existing large number of published articles, monographs and anthologies concerning the activities of those scientists, there are still a lot of interesting materials stored, including in the State Archive of the Russian Federation in Moscow, which are used in detail with a wide scientific apparatus by Prof. A.A. Nepomnyashchy in special essays of the monograph.
