Siberian Expedition - Siberian Exploration
The first scientific expedition to Siberia was undertaken by the German scholar Daniel Gottlieb Messerschmidt (1685-1735), who was sent to Siberia by order of the Russian Tsar Peter I, mainly to study medicinal plants and minerals. He travelled from 1719 to 1727, travelling all the way to the Lena River, collecting specimens of flora, fauna and minerals as well as 20 linguistic documents, and leaving behind a detailed diary of his research. In 1721-22, he was accompanied by the Swedish officer Strahlenberg, who had been a prisoner of war in Siberia, and later wrote The North-East of Asia and Europe (1730).
