The absolute and comprehensive research fixation is the main task of archaeology. One new methods photogrammetry, which rapidly gaining popularity in world, because it does not require much time labor involvement. Scaled 3D-models orthophotomaps monuments, buildings, objects artifacts can be created by using photogrammetry technology.Any kinds metrological measurements researches field cameral archaeology are carried out with help computer programs. To listed: post-expeditionary correction...
Today, preserving Ukraine’s cultural heritage is an integral task for museum organisations and research institutions. Digitising collections has become important timely museum’s employees. The creation of 3D-models one the crosses-encolpions 10th—13th centuries which stored in repository Chernihiv Historical Museum named after V. Tarnovskyi was no exception. It took place 2023 with support Deutsches Archäologisches Institut (DAI). aim project to create a publicly available digital catalogue...
Summary The North Pontic region, which encompasses present-day Ukraine, was a crossroads of migration as it connected the vast Eurasian Steppe with Central Europe. We generated shotgun-sequenced genomic data for 91 individuals dating from around 7,000 BCE to 1,800 CE study and mobility history in particular focus on historically attested migrating groups during Iron Age medieval period, such Scythian, Chernyakhiv, Saltiv Nogai associated peoples. infer high degree temporal heterogeneity...
The cemetery of the Pokrova Church on territory Tretiak was archaeologically explored from 1995 to 2021, where cultural layers, buildings and pits 10th—13th 17th—19th centuries, also more than 350 ground burials centuries were discovered. During research in a part (constructions) second half 17th — first 18th At that time before fire 1750, there production center potters blacksmiths here, as evidenced by ceramic physical material 1, 2, 16, 19 several household pits. Later, expanded vacated...
Published are the materials of recent excavations at Vypovziv hill-fort where five dwellings and a series economic objects were studied. Dwellings can be divided into building horizons because they situated quite compactly, overlap each other, rebuilt in same foundation pits, which means built different times. The 10th century early up includes two houses (structures 9 10) cut through by more 7 8). There conflagration traces synchronous to destruction hill-fort’s defensive structures....
Archaeological research on the suburb of old Rus Chernihiv allowed to explore a new section city and trace its development. In Xth – early XIth centuries ancient shore river Strizhen was occupied by burial ground. There were investigated three female burials with variety implements jewelery made precious metals, iron knives, pottery vessels, wooden bucket, etc. XI-XIIth is rapidly expanding housing-economic units begin appear at this site.

The publication highlights the use of photogrammetry as one methods fixing topographic base a site and creation using series photographs. In archaeological science, qualitatively prepared plan is basis for combining results previous subsequent works, reconstruction realistic model site, its micro-relief, source accurate measurements structures features monitoring current state. There are number creating topo-bases sites, starting with «classic» measuring devices (tape measure), compass, an...
In 2018 the expedition headed by O. P. Motsia explored territory of Chernihiv suburb. The burial mounds and flat grounds appeared here periodically since 10th century. aggressive chemical composition local soils has a very negative effect on survival metal artifacts organic materials complicating their study fixation. such situation it is appropriate to use field digital capture photogrammetric method that allows create 3D-model objects with authentic size which will allow metrological...
New archeological research was conducted in the Suburbs of Chernihiv 2022. It 150 m to west from defensive line Okolny Grad and this made it possible study part city trace its development different chronological horizons.
