Life

Alexewa studied at the Faculty of Biology of Moscow University (MGU) , graduating in 1951 from the Chair of Anthropology . She then worked at the MGU with Viktor Valerianowitsch Bunak , who greatly influenced her. In 1969 she defended her doctoral thesis on the anthropological characteristics of the East Slavic peoples and problems of their origins. She taught at the Department of Anthropology at MGU. Among her students were Marina Lvovna Butovskaya , Alexandra Petrovna Buschilowa and Marija Borisovna Mednikowa .

Alexewa worked for many years at the MGU's Anuchin Research Institute and Museum of Anthropology, of which she eventually became director. Her main research interests were ethnic anthropology and human ecology . She examined the origins of the differences between the ethnic groups and population groups and proposed the hypothesis of the formation of adaptive types with regard to the biological reactions to the respective living conditions. She found that the population of the bell-cup culture anthropologically corresponded to the Slavic type. She examined the anthropological similarity of the old Russian and also the modern Dnepr population to the populations in the Alpine zone. She organized and led a large number of anthropological expeditions in all territories of the USSR , in Mongolia and adjacent areas. In 1991 she was elected a Corresponding Member and in 2000 a full member of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAN) .

Alexejewa was buried in Moscow's Pyatnitskoye cemetery next to her husband, the anthropologist Valeri Pavlovich Alexejew .
