Resumo
Based on public data from the Google Earth, the article shows that the largest ancient land-division system in the Northern Black Sea region in antiquity was in the Lower Dnieper area. The land division observed there is very close in its external features to the land division which has long been known in the Olbia region. In general, it can be attributed to the non-linear land division of the Taman-Olbian type. The article substantiates the assumption that land division in the Lower Dnieper region was associated with farming which was carried out by the inhabitants of the Scythian settlements of the fourth – the first third of the third century BC. Together with the region of Olbia the Lower Dnieper area formed a dual centre of the same type of land division with a significant agricultural potential. Another such dual centre of a land-division type but on a smaller scale was the Bosporus together with the region of Middle Kuban.
