Description
Summary:Systematic control over the area of the seashore on the administrative border between the Donetsk People's Republic and the Rostov region has led to the accumulation of a collection of stone tools of the Middle Paleolithic and a collection of Pleistocene fauna. Loess-soil rocks of the Middle and Late Pleistocene are exposed in this area. All flint tools belong to the types of the Middle Paleolithic and were found in a redeposited state on the sea beach. Upper Cretaceous flint and alluvial flint were used for their production. The prospect of detecting a cultural layer at one of the material collection sites is noted. A recommendation was made on the organization of a targeted program for monitoring the state of archaeological heritage sites in the coastal zone of the Sea of Azov.
