Ancient Village or Settlement in Ukraine

One of the oldest centres of Greek culture, VI century BC, located in the territory of modern Ukraine (Belgorod-Dniester).
Archaeological excavations were carried out only in the last century, mainly by Soviet archaeologists. Last time here, "digging" 20-25 years ago.
The huge stone monoliths of the ancient city of rakushnyaka the local population for a long time, used in construction.
Almost on the spot Tyra, in the XV century defensive fortress was built from the same rakushnyaka, naturally, much was taken out again - with the ruins of ancient Thira.
