New approaches developed within the complex palaeogeographic methodology of cave deposits studies for reconstruction of the past ecological conditions are presented in the paper. The relevance and reliability of results of such studies are shown on the cases from the previous research of cave systems in Ukraine. The methodology based of palynological and lithological (including grain-size analysis) study of terrigenous cave deposits is proposed, and the advantages of their complex application within the multidisciplinary palaeoenvironmental study are proved. The reliability of palaeovegetational reconstructions based on pollen studies of clastic cave deposits is confirmed by the compatibility of their results with those obtained from coeval subaerial deposits. The same patterns were shown by a comparison of pollen from hyaena coprolites in the cave and their enclosing sediments. It has been found that the content of redeposited pollen in the clastic sediments of caves depends on their particle size distribution, sharply increasing in sandy deposits. The grain-size composition of cave deposits also provides information on the genesis of deposits and, thus, indirectly, on paleoenvironmental conditions. Changes in clay, large silt and sand fractions are of main importance for the interpretation of the results. A direct correlation of paleoclimatic signals obtained by the results of pollen and lithological analyses with the indicators of magnetic susceptibility has been established. The use of these paleogeographic methods for studying cave deposits, namely pollen analyses, lithological (in particular, grain-size), palaeontological, petromagnetic, palaeogenetic, radiocarbon and paleomagnetic methods, will be able to control the reliability of the reconstruction by collate them. Multidisciplinary study of the cave deposits has a great potential for reconstructions of the ancient Man environments as deposits of many caves include archaeological horizons of different material cultures from the Early Palaeolithic to the Early Iron Age.

Lifetime publications of T. Shevchenko's are priceless relics of Ukrainian literature and culture, which are authentic lists of his works, with handwritten corrections. There are many studies and comments on his work, but only a small number of specialists know the history of the composition of "Kobzar" in 1840, "Kobzar" in 1860. The interesting story of the publication of "Chihyrynskyi Kobzar" and the poem "Haydamaka" in 1847. "Bukvar yuzhnorusskyi" stands out among the contemporary editions, because it is a study guide for both adults and children to study the Ukrainian language. This book was compiled by Shevchenko for Sunday schools and published at his expense in 1861, with a very large circulation of 10,000 copies. An interesting lifetime publication of "Kobzar" from 1860, edited by M. Gerbel, translated by Russian poets: Mai, Mikhailov, Pleshcheev, Gerbel, Kurochkin. It was one of the main sources of acquaintance of the Russian reader with the poetry of T. Shevchenko during the 19th and 20th centuries. The history of the pocket book "Kobzaryk", which was transported to Ukraine illegally after the Emsk Decree of 1876, reveals the true position of the Ukrainian word in the Russian Empire. This little book was shipped hidden in Awadi cigarette paper measuring 85x55 ml from Geneva. Although this is not a lifetime publicaion, it was released without Russian censorship. To date, "Kobzar" has been reprinted more than 8 million times and has been translated into 100 languages. T. Shevchenko became a symbol of Ukrainian identity and originality.
