Abstract
For centuries and even millennia, Pridnestrovie has been a geopolitical frontier and a contact zone for various layers of human civilization and cultures. The Dniester River has always played an exceptionally important role, being a natural border between the various ethno-cultural zones of Eastern and South-Eastern Europe. The lands extending to the East of the Dniester, including modern Pridnestrovie, nowadays are an integral part of the Eastern Slavic area, more precisely, the Slavic-Orthodox civilization of the «middle land», Eurasia. What happened before the Slavic appearance in the Pridnestrovian lands? How did the borderland of the Pridnestrovian region affect the existence and development, interaction and confrontation of different peoples and cultures? The author of the paper tried to answer the questions posed and renew the discussion about this problem.
