The publication considers handmade lamps from Tyras, which are stored in the scientific funds of the Institute of Archaeology of the NAS of Ukraine and Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi Local History Museum. Lighting devices are divided into five types by shape: from semi-closed post-Hellenistic forms with an elongated nozzle, to wide-open forms, so-called boat-shaped lamps. Of particular interest are several rare forms (the 6th type) that are difficult to correlate with any type. All items in this publication are dated by the period from the 4th century BC to the 4th century AD. In addition, the authors managed to find similar analogies not only in the North-Western Black Sea region, but also beyond its borders. Handmade lamps were not items of mass production and were not intended to be widely traded. Nevertheless, they were used not massively, at a considerable area from the Northwest Black Sea coast to the Cimmerian Bosporus during the period from the 4th century BC to the 4th century AD. The abovementioned lamps, unlike certain types of handmade wares, can not be used as an ethno-indicative feature. During the periods of political and economic destabilization, the decline of crafts and trade could have led to the need for the production of handmade wares and lamps in particular.

A one-apsidal hall church is always a reflection of so-called “vulgar” Christianity, thus revealing the important peculiarities of the spatial culture of the region where it is erected. In this region we can mark two periods when such temples were built: VI-VII c. and X-XII c. The first period is associated with the missionary activity by Byzantine Empire, Antioch, Caucasian Albania which was conditioned by both geopolitical interests (Byzantian Empire, Antioch) and the shift of The Great Silk Way to the north (Caucasian Albania). The second, as the research has shown, is connected with the migration of the peoples of Abkhazia, the abzakhs to this territory in the XII-XIII c. and the development of contacts with the Crimea. In the North Black Sea Region the one-apsidal hall church appears as early as in the VI c. – in the territory of Abkhazia we know about ten such temples. The temples of this type in the area of Big Sochi are dated back to the VII-VIII c. In the first Abhzaian temples we can reveal the influence of denominational centers – Byzantian Empire, Antioch, Caucasian Albania. In the temples of the Black Sea coast of both periods – introduction of the samples from Abkhazia.

Abstract The paper presents the results of excavations and analytical studies regarding the taxonomic classification of a funeral site associated with the societies of ‘barrow cultures’ of the north-western Black Sea Coast in the first half of the 3rd and the middle of the 2nd millennium BC. The study discusses the ceremonial centres of the Eneolithic, Yamnaya and Noua cultures.

Paper summarizes information on the diversity of microscopic algae of 10 lakes of the north-western Black Sea coast (Bile, Kahul, Kartal, Katlabukh, Kytai, Pysarske, Sasyk, Safyany and Yalpug). A total of 339 species belonging to 135 genera, 62 families, 30 orders, 10 classes, 7 divisions were identified. The richest divisions were Bacillariophyta (198) and Chlorophyta (62) and Cyanophyta (40). Representatives of Euglenophyta (18), Charophyta (15), Ochrophyta (5) and Dinophyta (1) were less diverse. In the studied lakes, 13 new species were found for the Danube lakes and four species are first cited for the water bodies of the North-Western Black Sea Coast and the territory of Ukraine. Among them Pinnularia fonticola Hustedt is new record to Europe. Genera Nitzschia Hassall (26), Navicula Bory (15), Сymbella C.Agardh (9), Tryblionella W.Sm. (9), Desmodesmus (F.Chodat) An, Friedl et E.Hegew.(9), Caloneis Cleve (8), Gomphonema (C.Agardh) Ehrenb. (8), Euglena Ehrenb. (7), Cosmarium Corda et Ralfs (7) and Oscillatoria Vaucher ex Gomont (7) formed the basis of the species composition of algae in studied lakes. Morphologically, 189 species are unicellular, 119 colonial and 31 multicellular algae. Of these, 157 species are known as motile and 182 as immotile forms. On different types of substrates different numbers of microalgae species were identified. 148 species grew epiphytically on macrophytes; on solid substrates, 42 species were revealed on concrete and 38 on stones. On the bottom, 110 species were found on silt and 41 on sand. In relation to the level of water mineralization in the lakes freshwater species dominated (281). They include 221 species of indifferents, 58 halophiles and 2 halophobes. Mesohalobes were represented by 52 species, six species are marine (polyhalobes). Lakes Yalpug (198 species), Kugurluy (198) and Katlabukh (192) were the richest in microalgae species.

In the present article the features of the functioning of the Ottoman Waqf in the territory of the North Black Sea region are investigated. It is indicated on the specifics of the city development by the Ottomans, which reflected the achievements of the Islamic-Ottoman civilization. It was determined that one of the important phenomena that had been brought by the Ottomans to this territory was Waqf. The main economic, social and cultural reasons for the occurrence of vaqf in the specified region are indicated. The influence of the waqf on the life of the northern Black Sea coast is analyzed. The main centers of evolution of waqf on the basis of written sources and results of archaeological excavations are considered. Particular attention is paid to the problem, that waqf became an element of the "soft" policy of Islamization and colonization of this territory.
