Siberia, spanning across a massive geographical region encompassing parts of Eurasia and North Asia, this territory extends from the Ural Mountains to the watershed dividing the Pacific and Arctic drainage basins.
Home to harsh and unforgiving winters where temperatures in January average around −25 °C, Siberia is so massive that it accounts for as much as 77% of Russia’s land area.
Siberia is also home to Lake Baikal, the largest freshwater lake by volume in the world, containing 22–23% of the world’s fresh surface water.
And it is precisely within this massive, mysterious region where archeologists have discovered some of the most fascinating archeological finds in the history of mankind.
