Ukrainian researchers highlight major archaeological finds of 2026
Ukrainian archaeologists have highlighted major discoveries from the past field season, including artifacts from Cherkasy and a cromlech on Khortytsia Island.
Archaeologists in Ukraine have concluded their field research season, highlighting key discoveries made across the country over the past nine months. Prominent findings include historic artifacts from the Cherkasy region and an ancient cromlech structure discovered on Khortytsia Island.
Researchers noted an increased reliance on modern technology to guide excavations. Advanced tools such as satellite imagery and light detection and ranging (LIDAR) were used to map site locations before physical digs began, improving precision and efficiency. As winter approaches, field teams are preparing to analyze their findings indoors.
