The object of this study is a
selection of stone drilled tools found at different times in the city of Yalta and in its
surroundings as random finds. At present, they are kept in the Yalta Historical-Literary
Museum. These
tools are stone drilled axes-hammers, hammers and pickaxes. In the course of
the study, it was established that the axes-hammers are to be identified as
instruments of the pit cultural-historical community. The most illustrative
example of this group is the stone bec de corbin, direct analogues of
which are found in the sites of the steppe Eneolithic
of the Black Sea and the late Trypillia. It was concluded that the Southern shore was
inhabited by tribes of the same cultural and historical communities as those
of the Steppes of the Northern Black Sea Coast
and the foothills of the Crimea.
