Abstract

The article presents the results of field research on the Pitsunda Peninsula in January-February 2022. Based on the data obtained, the scheme of coast development proposed by Balabanov (2009) is supplemented. The use of modern methods made it possible to clarify the topography, and drilling data formed the basis for reconstruction for the ancient period.
