Rock Art, Landscape, and Settlements - Study of context and placement
During the years of the settlement research, a number of ‘absolute’ dates were obtained by the radiocarbon method performed by different laboratories. Since these results were published separately, as new data were obtained, it is advisable to combine them in one source. Thus, as of 2022, we have 34 dates that differ in the time of analysis, materi...
У звітний сезон було проведено археологічні розвідки в межах сіл Межиріч, Лука, Гамарня і Бабичі та в їх околицях. ці населені пункти належать до Канівської об’єднаної територіальної громади Черкаської обл. й знаходяться в межиріччі Росі та Росави.

The archaeological settlements are attributed to various chronological and cultural complexes: Gravettian, Epi-Aurignacian, Epigravettian, and Final Palaeolithic. A part of Epigravettian vestiges refe...
Ділянка верхнього шару сформувалась внаслідок активної господарської діяльності та виносу горілого матеріалу з житла, а також, можливо, внаслідок функціонування зовнішніх вогнищ. Подальші дослідження ділянки на південь від першого житла дадуть можливість зрозуміти складну структуру ГПК, етапність заселення території стоянки та розвиток планувальної...
In order to determine the degree of relatedness of archaeological sites, it is important to study lithic assemblages originated from relatively closed archaeological objects and which can serve as a reference for a comparative analysis of several industries. This article analyses a separate archaeological object - a flint Workshop 1 - against the b...

Recent research in the field of prehistoric archaeology in Eastern Europe, together with the rapid development of natural sciences and radiocarbon dating, is radically changing our perception about the development of prehistoric cultures as a slow, steady and gradual process. This knowledge allows us to draw conclusions about the vulnerability of h...
It is possible to find out the continuity or discontinuity of the processes during the transitional periods with the involvement of the data of several related disciplines, in this case - the prehistoric archaeology and paleogeography.

В процесі дослідження траншеї, що розташована по довгій осі, у заповненні житла виявлено дві функціонально різні ділянки обабіч центральної частини з залишками вогнища. Культурні рештки в південно-західній ділянці свідчать про проведення тут операцій по обробці хутра та шкіри, в той час як в північно-східній частині траншеї наявні яскраві свідчення...

Завдяки мікростратиграфічним дослідженням з'ясовано, що яма 6 ГПК 2 була утворена тоді, коли четвертого ГПК ще не існувало, що може бути свідченням відносної хронології об'єктів та поступового розвитку планувальної структури всієї стоянки. Видається, що другий ГПК старший за перший за часом утворення, однак це не виключає синхронного функціонування...
