Recent archaeological excavations on the Primorsky Boulevard in Odessa, next to the monument to the Duke de Richelieu, brought unexpected results. Students of the South Ukrainian National Pedagogical University together with the staff of the Institute of Archeology of the NAS of Ukraine found ceramic products and coins of Genoese origin of the fourteenth century.
The findings confirm the existence of the Italian fortified jeans at this place, as well as parts of the Ottoman fortress, which greatly expands the idea of the historical past of Odessa. About it reports inkorr.com.
The director of the Department of Culture of the Odessa City Council called the discovery extremely important for the study of the history of the city. He also did not rule out that this archaeological object could claim to be included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Currently, the project is being developed and an information board for visitors is being developed.
Last year, Georadarna studies under the guidance of the rector of the South Ukrainian University confirmed the likelihood of a stone fortress of Hadzhibey at this place. New discoveries further emphasize the multilayered history of the region and open up new research opportunities.
In parallel with this, a human -bone container was found in Kiev, which caused anxiety of scientists and law enforcement, demonstrating the complexity and versatility of archaeological searches in Ukraine.
