Для решения этой задачи анализируются материалы Черкасской крепости (Черкасского казачьего городка) XVII-XVIII в. на Нижнем Дону. Были учтены ружейные микролиты-вкладыши (51 экз.), кресальные кремни (39 экз.), а также изделия, непосредственно связанные с кремневым хозяйством (кресала 2 экз.) и огнестрельным оружием (пули 222 экз., ружейный замок с сохранившимся ружейным кремнем, фрагмент ствола). Ружейные и кресальные кремни происходят из различных археологических комплексов. Универсальным датирующим материалом всех объектов культурного слоя являются монеты, и прежде всего, широко распространенные мелкие медные номиналы. Депонирование ружейных и кресальных кремней в культурный слой укрепленного поселения совпадает с моделями депонирования бытового мусора. Авторы предлагают ввести индекс интенсивности износа (Iint) кремневых ружейных микролитов-вкладышей для определения степени редукции изд...

It was a first-ever possibility to identify and study fragments of this tableware, which are stored in the stock collections of Azov History, Archaeology and Paleontology Museum-Reserve. The authors of this ceramological research set themselves the following tasks: to study the history of the origin of the Ottoman «Polychrome Marble Ware», to determine the centers of its production and the time of its existence, as well as to define and classify the types and forms of these potteries, which were encountered during excavations in the Turkish fortress of Azak, to find analogies in other archaeological sites of the Ottoman time. The research results are reflected in four chapters of this article. In our opinion, most of the «Polychrome Marble Ware» was brought to the Turkish fortress Azak from Anatolia, where it was produced in the 17 th-18 th centuries. Among this pottery, obviously, there are also pottery from the coast of Marmara Sea and the SouthEast Crimea. Crimean potters, apparently, imitated Italian and Malaysian tableware with marble decor that was then fashionable.

All of them are from the excavations carried out on the territory of the former Ottoman fortress Azak (Azov old district) and its surroundings. Until recently, this archeological material has been left unstudied and has not been put into scientific use. The great bulk of finds (over 80%) are Muslim (Turkish) tobacco pipes. These are pipes made by the ceramics craftsmen on the territory of the former Ottoman Empire (Asia Monor, the Crimea, Balkans). They were widely used by the military garrison of the Turkish fortress Azak in private daily life. All in all, Muslim tobacco pipes were discovered by the archeologists in Azov in the cultural layers of XVII-the beginning of XIX centuries. The pipes from four "closed" complexes (three pits and a burial) discovered in 1998-2004 are dated by the end of XVII-the beginning of XVIII centuries according to the coin material. The majority of the tobacco pipes are abundantly ornamented splendid examples of the Muslim ceramics art. Some of them have stamps of their makers and Ottoman inscriptions made in Arabic calligraphy. The variety of pipe "fashions" is highly considerable. A number of the pipes are flower-shaped: as a tulip, a lily, a narcissus,

Near the Annenskaya fortress, there were unfortified Soldatskaya and Dolomanovskaya villages. The Annenskaya fortification mainly functioned from 1733 to 1760, while the pinnacle of its population (the garrison reached 9,000 people) fell at the Russian-Turkish war of 1735–1739. There were no archaeological excavations at the site, the picked-up findings were collected by various authors in 2000, 2003–2006. Among the findings, there are religious objects, military ammunition, household remains. Significant part of inventory amount gun and fire-steel flints, gun supplies (bullets). The analysis of these materials is the main purpose of the paper. The collection of gun flints includes intact samples (50 pcs) and fragments (22 pcs). Some of them (6 pcs) were preserved in lead clips. A significant part of the worn-out gun flints (22 pcs) wer...

housing development in the Kuban region in recent years has led to the discovering
of a number of stationary and seasonal specialized settlements of the beginning of
Modern times, which were associated with the Nekrasov Cossacks. During the
excavations, a rich complex of material remains was collected. The complex
comprised the remains of weapons, including gunflint. A fire-steel flint has also been
found. These small artifacts permit you to work out in detail the flint economy of
militarized non-Muslim population of Kuban of 1710-1770s. The authors suggest that
for military and domestic needs the local population used flint that originated from
different sources.

Gunflints and fire-steel flints take an important place in a complex of the material remains of the 17–18th centuries. The considerable collection of such products (259 pieces) comes from the fortress of Lutik (Sed-Islam, in Osman tradition) in the lower reaches of Don. The fortress existed from 1660 to 1741. The occupation layer contains both “Turkish” and “Russian” archaeological remains, and it is difficult to separate them from each other. The publication contains the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of this specific category of archaeological findings. Materials are described in terms of the Stone Age archaeology. For understanding of specifics of a flint complex, a gunlock, lead bullets and iron fire-steels are also described in the publication.
Keywords: archaeology, Modern times, fortress of Liutik, gunflints, fire-steel flints, gunlock.

Archaeological finds supply the information of the written sources and allow to get a complex idea of history of the North-Eastern Azov region of the mentioned period. Quite narrow time frames of these sites’ existence help develop a chronology of different categories of archaeological materials.
Key words: history of fortification; chronology; archaeology of warfare; Russian development of the Azov region; the Turkish Empire.

This fortress was built by the Ottomans in 1660 at the mouth of the Don on its right arm, the Dead Donets river (near the modern city of Taganrog, this is 2,0-2,5 km from the farm of Nedvigovka, Rostov region). The remains of the fortress were studied from 1970-1973 by the archaeological expedition led by V.F. Chesnok and in 1993-1994 by an archaeological group under the direction of V.N. Kuzmin. All the archaeological finds (about 5,000 units) have been placed in storage in the Archaeological Museum-Reserve "Tanais". The bulk of these findings consisted of ceramic material, which is conventionally called either "Turkish" or "Russian" (as a result of numerous Russian-Turkish wars, the castle many times passed hands). In general these ceramics date back to the 17th unto the beginning of the 18th centuries. By a thorough study of the "Turkish" ceramic material from the excavation of the fortress of Sed-Islam (Liutik) it was explained that the glazed and non-glazed ceramics occupy a significant place in the collection, which are conventionally called "the ceramics from the Southeast Crimea". These are 84% of the total "Ottoman" ceramic material (about 2,000 pieces). Besides, the ratio of glazed and non-glazed ceramics from the Southeast Crimea on the cultural property site is approximately the same: 52% from the total quantity are the glazed ceramics, 48% from the total quantity are the nonglazed ceramics. All the material is highly fragmented. The glazed ceramics of the Southeast Crimean group from the fortress of Sed-Islam (Liutik) mainly are represented by fragments of the bulk of "red clay" pottery tableware (bowls, cups, plates, jugs). Also, the glazed ceramics are represented by aftoba and illumination tools (lamps and candlesticks) with monochrome and bichrome glazes (green salad, marsh and yellow-brown in color) on the surface. Graffiti are found both on the bottoms and on the vessels walls. A special group consists of wares (fishing sinkers?) from the walls of the glazed ceramics of the Southeast Crimean group. All of these ceramics have their own characteristics, which have been analyzed in detail by the author of this article.
Keywords: Don, Sed-Islam (Liutik) fortress, the Ottomans, glazed ceramic, Crimea, import.

This fortress was built by the Ottomans in 1660 at the mouth of the Don on its right arm, the Dead Donets river (near the modern city of Taganrog, this is 2,0-2,5 km from the farm of Nedvigovka, Rostov region). The remains of the fortress were studied from 1970-1973 by the archaeological expedition led by V.F. Chesnok and in 1993-1994 by an archaeological group under the direction of V.N. Kuzmin. All the archaeological finds (about 5,000 units) have been placed in storage in the Archaeological Museum-Reserve "Tanais". The bulk of these findings consisted of ceramic material, which is conventionally called either "Turkish" or "Russian" (as a result of numerous Russian-Turkish wars, the castle many times passed hands). In general these ceramics date back to the 17th unto the beginning of the 18th centuries. By a thorough study of the "Turkish" ceramic material from the excavation of the fortress of Sed-Islam (Liutik) it was explained that the glazed and non-glazed ceramics occupy a significant place in the collection, which are conventionally called "the ceramics from the Southeast Crimea". These are 84% of the total "Ottoman" ceramic material (about 2,000 pieces). Besides, the ratio of glazed and non-glazed ceramics from the Southeast Crimea on the cultural property site is approximately the same: 52% from the total quantity are the glazed ceramics, 48% from the total quantity are the nonglazed ceramics. All the material is highly fragmented. The glazed ceramics of the Southeast Crimean group from the fortress of Sed-Islam (Liutik) mainly are represented by fragments of the bulk of "red clay" pottery tableware (bowls, cups, plates, jugs). Also, the glazed ceramics are represented by aftoba and illumination tools (lamps and candlesticks) with monochrome and bichrome glazes (green salad, marsh and yellow-brown in color) on the surface. Graffiti are found both on the bottoms and on the vessels walls. A special group consists of wares (fishing sinkers?) from the walls of the glazed ceramics of the Southeast Crimean group. All of these ceramics have their own characteristics, which have been analyzed in detail by the author of this article.
