Борисов-Глебов, Archaeological site in Rybnovsky District, Russia
The remains of Borisov-Glebov stand on a high bank of the Oka River, covering an area of 200 by 120 meters with three protective ramparts.
First mentioned in chronicles from 1180, this ancient Russian city served as a strategic point on the route between Kolomna and Old Ryazan within the Ryazan Principality.
Archaeological excavations at Borisov-Glebov have uncovered numerous artifacts including pottery fragments, metal objects, temple rings, silver vessels, and crosses from the 12th century.
The site is located 3 kilometers west of Vakino village, accessible through local roads, with the nearest accommodation options available in the Rybnovsky District.
Beneath the medieval layer lies evidence of an Iron Age settlement, with traces of Gorodets culture indicating continuous human presence in this location.
