Abstract Paleozoological study of archaeological findings from the excavations of Vologda settlement (12 th –15 th centuries) revealed information about trade and trade links between Vologda and the Arctic region. The existence of such links in the Middle Ages and the Modern Age is also confirmed by museum collections and written sources that contain information about the participation of residents Vologda in long-distance marine expeditions to the Arctic region.
