Summary/Abstract: The study of ancient settlements in Eastern Crimea is of great scientific importance. In 2017, Ivanovka Severnaya settlement was studied on the route of the Kerch — Feodosia highway under construction. Here, a series of pits was excavated, dating to the middle of the 4th — beginning of the 3rd centuries BC. Excavations most likely affected the outskirts of the ancient settlement. The osteological materials are very interesting. They are represented by the bones of horses, cows, sheep; the number of pig bones is relatively small. The settlement had a well-developed poultry. It is assumed that this is an agricultural settlement in the distant surrounding of the capital of the Bosporus Kingdom.
