Abstract
A survey of monuments of Chersonesos necropolis allows us to trace the transformation of worldview of the inhabitants in the transition from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages. In the 4th century in the city Christianity spread. Christians used symbolic language of late antiquity for the creation of their art system, but they gave it a new meaning. Especially clear reflection of this process are Chersonesos crypts with Christian paintings. They illustrate a stage of forming of the early Christian idea of paradise.
