The Greeks got around, even into the Crimea. On the Black Sea not far from Yalta are a bunch of Greek ruins called Khersones. In fact, Yalta was at one time a Greek colony called Halos. Faros, where Gorby's dacha in the Crimea is located, was also a Greek colony.

The ruins of the Khersones are depicted on the back of the 1 Grivnya note.

To think these were antiquities perhaps seen by Alexander the Great. They should be preserved at all costs.
