From Olga Manigda’s Facebook post dated by December 28, 2019: 

“ACROSS THE ROAD”

Go to colleagues in the National Museum of History of Ukraine – the NMHU

for the event they conceived and embodied, it is traditionally Volodymyrska’s favorite event, which is called “going across the road.” And it will continue to be called like that, regardless of the fact that we are now separated by several roads.

The event in question is also from us in a sense “across the road.” Across the road from two regimes, from life and execution, from hopes and reality. “

 

On October 11, 2019, a meeting of the section “From stone to paleometal” of the International Scientific Conference of Young Scientists “To dig or not to dig: invasive and non-invasive methods of archaeology” was held on the basis of the Reading room of the Archive.
