The heritage of the "Country udehe" V.K. Arseniev: ethnic and cultural ethnographic or ethnomusicological?

The interdisciplinary approach to the learning of the phenomena of cultural heritage actualizes the need to harmonize the meanings of concepts widely used in this area. Searching the term to designate the heritage of V.K. Arsenyev, one of the researchers of the indigenous ethnic groups of the Far East late XIX - early XX centuries, showed the semantic unity and insufficient definition of the meanings of the categories “ethnocultural”, “ethnographic” and “ethnomuseological”. These terms are included in the conceptual sphere of cultural heritage, which in recent decades has attracted increased attention of specialists in various fields of knowledge. The content of the concepts is considered in the article in order to substantiate the use of the term “ethnographic” in relation to the heritage, representing the image of the culture of a certain people, but collected and presented by the researcher-collector of a different cultural affiliation through the prism of his vision.
