Abstract
Łanczont M., Fedorowicz St., Kusiak J., Boguckij A., Sytnyk O. TL age of loess deposits in the Yezupil I Palaeolithic site on the upper Dniester River (Ukraine). Geologija. Vilnius. 2009. Vol. 51. No. 3–4 (67–68). P. 86–96. ISSN 1392-110X Th e Yezupil I archaeological loess site, situated in the East Carpathian Foreland (Ukraine), with two cultural layers (Middle and Upper Palaeolithic), has been systematically investigated by archaeologists and naturalists for about 20 years. Th ese joint researches gave a very good basis for the palaeogeographical, cultural, and stratigraphic interpretation of the profi le. Th e scope of the research included also TL analysis. Th e set of TL dates obtained formerly at the Lublin laboratory was supplemented with the dating results from the Gdansk laboratory. Altogether, 28 samples were dated, enabling us to establish the chronostratigraphy of the profi le. Th e obtained results correlate well with the European schemes of Pleistocene stratigraphy and Palaeolithic periodization. Additionally, fi nds connected with considerably younger (Holocene) settlement phases (Early Neolithic, Iron Age) in the Dniester River valley were dated.
