Summary/Abstract: In the presented article, the author considers the topic of the presence of Bulgarian studies on the pages of the “Journal of Ethnology and Culturology”, a scientific publication of the Center of Ethnology of the Institute of Cultural Heritage. The general statistical analysis shows that in the period 2007–2019 95 articles on Bulgarian studies were published on the pages of this journal. At the end of the article, the author compiled a bibliographic list of these materials. The published articles on Bulgarian studies can be divided into several categories, such as: ethnology, history, culture and the language of Bessarabian Bulgarians. The topics discussed in these scientific works relate to the problems associated with the development of the Bulgarian ethnic community in the tsarist and interwar periods. A very important aspect is the publication of field materials related to the customs of the Bulgarians in the Republic of Moldova. They describe the ritual of birth, traditional clothes and nutrition. Precious material is also represented by folklore, which allows us to analyze the features of the “inner world” and the ethno-psychology of Bessarabian Bulgarians. There are also important articles about various personalities of Bulgarian origin who have made themselves known in the socio-economic and cultural life of Bessarabia and Bulgaria.
