Kurgan in eastern Crimea, Ukraine / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Royal Kurgan or Tsarskyi Kurgan (Ukrainian: Царський курган) from the 4th century BC, is one of the most impressive tumuli (kurgans) of the eastern Crimea. The burial barrow is located in the present-day Kerch (Ukraine), which developed out of the ancient Greek town of Panticapaion (Παντικάπαιον) founded by Miletus.
