Abstract

In spring 2019, the territory of the Tara Fortress and Ostrog received the official status of archaeological heritage site “Tarsky Kremlin Settlement” and, therefore, it became necessary to conduct additional researches on studying the planography of this part of the city in the first half of the 17th to 18th centuries. In 2020, i.e. the thirteenth season of archeological excavations in the historical center of Tara, the research was performed in the eastern part of the Tara Ostrog. As a result, the exact location of the stone Paraskeva Pyatnitsa Chapel, built in the late 18th century, was determined. A part of the chapel cemetery of the first half of the 18th century, which belongs to the wooden Pyatnitskaya church (built in the first half of the 16th century) was studied, and an approximate position of the temple itself was determined, on the place of which a district CDC “North” is located now. We recorded a backfilled ravine, which in the 17th century, limited the city from the eastern side and the edge of which had a cautious wall. During the work, a collection of items was made related to the economic and domestic life of the citizens of Tara. In Komsomol Park (Tikhvin Cemetery from the end of the 70s of the 18th century to 1963), a search was conducted for the location of the cemetery church of the Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God (built in 1784—1789). Surprisingly, on the maps of the 19th to the first half of the 20th century, the church was dislocated by 10—12 m to the west. The foundation was found; it was a backfilling made of clay and bricks more than 1.2 m deep. The church was not blown up, but dismantled, so the foundation is in good condition. In some places, remains of brickwork are preserved. After expert review, it is possible to restore the temple on this foundation.
