description The article is devoted to the collection of stove tiles, originated from archaeological objects on the territory of Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra National Preserve. The collection includes stove units of XV–XIX centuries, which illustrate important aspects of history Kyiv-Pechersk Monastery and partly a history of Ukrainian tiles’ industry. The material is structured according to the chronological periodization of tiles’ evolution. The earliest findings are pot-like tiles (XV–XVI centuries) and tiles with a half-sphere external bend in the centre of the base. Chronologically next group is the series of findings of early tablet tiles ХVІ–XVII centuries. They are decorated with the sacral or myth stories, anthropomorphic or teratological figures, and element of Ancient Rus’ symbols. The biggest group is tiles of XVIІ–XVIII centuries includes a wide range of products of different types and styles. The tile of the specified period is characterized by the most complete representation both in terms of typological varieties and in terms of stylistic variants of decoration of products. The ending of Ukrainian tiles industry is illustrated by XIX century tiles. In this article, we worked on the brightest examples of stove tiles from the territory of Kyiv-Pechersk monastery. We also compared them with the synchronic examples from Pechersk. This data deserves further examining and may include different aspects. One of them is to try to make more clearly chronological differentiation of the collection, linking them to the particular periods of monastery’s history or to the particular household objects of monastery structure. It should be mentioned, that the findings need conservation and restoration. As far as it will be done, the findings could be full museum collection.
