At the new exhibition in Khersones Tauride — “Letters” of the Stone Grave

In the caves of the archaeological monument in the vicinity of Melitopol, numerous alphabetic and icon signs were found. They belong to the time of the emergence of syllabic and alphabetical writing and are associated with the mythopoetic systems of ancient people.

The drawings and signs of one of the grottoes of the stone grave are scattered on the ceiling, which is characteristic of Mesopotamia, Elam, Phenicia and Greece. Probably, the tribes of the Northern Black Sea region and the Azovs possessed the skills of a icon and counting prototyphe, known in the early stages of the development of society.
