Abstract
A comprehensive architectural, semiotic, and ethnographic analysis of 17th-18th-century Russian churches dedicated to the Mother of God and to the Holy Trinity in Siberia suggests that their architectural structure, specifically, their barrel roofing, became one of the ethno-confessional markers of Russian presence in the newly acquired territories, and a spiritual symbol of the Russian settlement in the region.
