| Summary: | The article deals with the data of archaeological studies of Tsaryovokokokokshaysk defensive structures. During archaeological studies the remains of posad fortifications – ostrog (wooden tortress), were found in the historical center of Yoshkar-Ola. The moat and the base of the poling wall were cut during archaeological excavations in 2008 and 2009 on the construction area of the cultural and historical complex "Tsaryovokokokshaysk Kremlin". Then a part of the moat, located to the south of the previously studied areas, was discovered during archaeological reconnaissance in 2013. Later in 2019, the moat and the ostrog's paling were investigated during archaeological excavations in the Kremlyovsky Housing Estate construction area south of the Tsaryovokokokokshaysky Kremlin. The results of archaeological studies of Tsaryovokokokokshaysk defensive structures allow the authors to clarify and supplement significantly archival sources and recreate the historical landscape of the city. |
