Abstract

The article analyzes the formation of a Cossack village on the coastal territory of the Don River in a historical and architectural-compositional context. A retrospective of the formation of the Cossack village of stanitsa Starocherkasskaya from the 18th century is considered until now. The author focuses on both architectural and compositional aspects and historical background that influence the formation of the image of the Cossack village. In addition, the main social aspects that influenced the integration of the coastal area into the structure of a small historical settlement are identified. For the coastal area of the Starocherkasskaya Cossack village (stanitsa), the author identifies three key periods of formation and integration into the structure of the settlement. The first is the period during the 18th century. The second is the period from the 19th to the middle of 20th century. The third is the period from the second half of the 20th century to the present. Each period is considered in detail. This is of great importance in the formation of the Starocherkasskaya Cossack village (stanitsa), and in particular the coastal area as the most important component in the structure of the settlement. Five basic principles for the formation of the structure of the Cossack settlement are formulated and the role of the coastal territory in this process is indicated on the basis of analysis of historical cartographic material
