Rural territory of tauric chersonesos (Crimea). Farmhouses in the Yukharine Ravine – Researches in 2011

Abstrakt

In 2011 we proceeded further with archaeological investigations on the ancient settlement activity in the yukharine Ravine, situated in the heraclean Peninsula within the agricultural territory (chora) of Crimean Chersonesos. A team of students from “Wod.o.lot”, a student research organisation, acting as members of our Crimean expedition from the Institute of Archaeology of the University of Warsaw, made an aerial and geophysical survey using electroresistivity method (Farmhouse 342 and surroundings of Farm 343). vertical aerial photographs taken from a kite were transformed into orthophotomaps of Farmhouses 342, 343 and 363. The only site excavated in 2011 was Farm 343 (for the plan see: Т. СаРнОвСки, л.а. кОвалевСкая, Сельская округа Херсонеса Таврического (Крым).
