“…On the one hand, this situation makes any large-scale excavation of these sites a complex enterprise [69]. On the other hand, it opens the possibility to study the soil sequences looking for trends of pedogenesis during the Holocene [70].…”

The problems regarding hunter-gatherer/early farmer interactions are quite an important topic in southeast European archaeology. According to the available data, the two economic subsistence systems have coexisted for some 2000 years during the 6th–4th millennia cal BC (Telegin 1985; Lillie et al., 2001). In some areas, hunter-gatherer and early farmer sites are located just a few kilometers apart. The Southern Buh River valley has yielded evidence of Linear Pottery culture, early Trypillia and Trypillia B1 Neolithic settlements as well as hunter-gatherer sites with pottery attributable to the so-called sub-Neolithic or para-Neolithic (Haskevych et al., 2019; Kiosak et al., 2021). Trial-trenches have been opened within some of these sites, which have been radiocarbon-dated from Bern University laboratory (LARA). Soil samples for micromorphological analysis have been collected from these sites to interpret their paleogenetic formation. The soil development is attested since, at least, the beginning of the 5th mill BC, followed by the developed of chernozem soils, which was interrupted by an erosional episode in the end of 5th millennium BC. The available data show that the soils of early farmers arable as are the present day ones. The early farmers were able to exploit relatively heavy soils to cultivate wheat and barley as early as 5250–5050 cal BC. In contrast, the sites of ceramic hunter-gatherers were often located on the soils which formed under wet conditions along seasonally flooded riverbanks, which were almost unsuitable for agricultural practices.

“…Owing to more intense leaching processes, Chernozems in Central Europe were degraded and replaced by Luvisols and Retisols subsequent to the Bronze Age (Schalich, 1988;Fischer-Zujkov, 2000). Within the Podolia and the Dniester-Zbruch interfluve, Luvisols have been developed from Chernozems due to the expansion of forests over the meadow-steppe landscapes during the Holocene Subatlantic period (Dmytruk et al, 2014). In contrast to these findings, Barczi et al (2006aBarczi et al ( , 2006bBarczi et al ( , 2009 suggested the continuous development of Chernozems under steppe vegetation during the last four thousand years on the Great Hungarian Plain.…”

Публікацію підготовлено за результатами палеоґрунтознавчих досліджень різночасової археологічної пам'ятки -Сторожівський курганний могильник, які проводилися співробітниками сектора палеогеографії Інституту географії НАН України впродовж 2010-2015 рр. При дослідженні застосовано геоархеологічний підхід у контексті палеопедологічного методу з використанням мікроморфологічного аналізу. Суть цього підходу полягає у вивченні похованого ґрунту під археологічною пам'яткою та порівняння його із сучасним ґрунтом. В результаті отримано нові дані про природні умови дрібних хроноінтервалів пізнього голоцену на досліджуваній території. GEOARCHAEOLOGICAL APPROACH IN PALEOSOIL RESEARCH OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITESThe publication was prepared on the basis of the results of paleopedological studies of the time archeological monument Storozhove burial mound, which was conducted by employees of the paleogeography sector of the Institute of Geography of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine during 2010-2015. The study used the geoarhaeology approach in the context of the paleopedological method using micromorphological analysis. The main essence of this approach is the study of buried ground under an archaeological monument and its comparison with modern soil. As a result of the research, new data on the natural conditions of the small chronointervals of the late Holocene were obtained.
