Хортиця, яку ви не знали: триголовий змій, мечі Святослава і запорізький Стоунхендж

There are places on Khortytsia where legends sound almost like fantasy: a cave with a three-headed snake, Catherine's Rock, and a sanctuary that is compared to Stonehenge. But behind every legend there is a real story hidden here - from Cossack hideouts to the rituals of ancient peoples. In this issue, SODA journalists, together with Oleg Vlasov, a researcher at the Khortytsia Nature Reserve, set off to explore the most interesting places on the island. They talked about the Upper Head of Khortytsia, stone women, the Snake Cave, the possible place of death of Prince Svyatoslav, the Great Mound, the legend of Catherine II, and ancient sanctuaries where people worshiped the sun and celestial bodies. 👉 We also recommend watching this video:    • 50 років токсичної небезпеки і бездіяльнос...   Thank you for watching SODA.
