Abstract

​

The article is devoted to highlighting the role of Kostiantyn Shyshkin in the development of Soviet archaeological science. Attention is paid to the difficulties of perception by official archaeologists of numerous discoveries made thanks to the deciphering of aerial photography. The method of identifying archaeological monuments developed by this researcher is relevant to the present time and can be supplemented to a large extent by satellite image data.

The name of K. Shyshkin is inextricably linked with the discovery of the proto cities of the Trypllia culture. Thanks to the analysis of articles and archival materials, it was found that the researcher had a great deal of experience in discovering monuments of the steppe regions of Ukraine. However, these materials are not yet available to a wide range of researchers
