Mammoth Monument, Kulishivka, Cast iron memorial in Kulishivka, Ukraine.
The three-meter-tall Mammoth Monument features a truncated pyramid structure placed upon a cubic pedestal with inscriptions on multiple faces.
In 1839, Professor Ivan Kalynychenko from Kharkiv University excavated mammoth bones at this location, requiring six carts for transportation.
The monument stands as the first memorial of its kind in Ukraine and appears on the district coat of arms representing local heritage.
The memorial is located on Taras Shevchenko Street in Kulishivka village, within the Romny district of Sumy region.
The 1841 monument marks both a paleontological discovery site and a historical border point between Moscow territories and Rzeczpospolita.
