The article presents preliminary results of research carried out in 2018 near Skhidnytsya (Eastern Carpathians), where series of Paleolithic stone artifacts was found in slope Holocene deposits. According to technical and morphological indicators, these materials can be defined as belonging to Lower Paleolithic. Finding of new location of materials with Lower Paleolithic features on the outskirts of Skhidnytsia, again actualize results of researches, carried out by O. Chernysh in the area of this village during late 1980s – early 1990s.
Recently discovered location of stone artifacts Skhidnitsya II is interesting and potentially important for the study of series of issues related to research of possible ways of settling of ancient communities. Although examination of sites has just begun, the following conclusions can be made. Technical and typological features of collection of tools make it possible to determine preliminary Skhidnytsya II as belonging to group of pebble industries, which in the western part of Eastern Europe are now dated back to 0,4–1,2 million years ago. According to available mediated data, chronological position of Skhidnytsya II tends to the first half – lower limit of mentioned interval. Volcanic rock was a raw material for production of some artifacts.Their outcrops are probably located in the area of Vihorlat-Gutin volcanic strata. Detected evidences of remote transportation of raw materials clearly indicate potential importance of materials from Skhidnitsya II for discussion of the time and ways of penetration of the Lower Paleolithic population to the territory of Europe.
Lower Paleolithic, stone artifacts, pebble industry, volcanic rocks.
