description У статті наведено огляд мегаструктур біля
 скіфських курганів-гігантів Огузу та Чортомлику та аналіз 19 вузлів (перехресть) давніх шляхів,
 пов’язаних з насипами курганів, виявлених на супутникових знімках в центральній частині Дніпро-Молочанської степової області. Шість із цих
 вузлів опиняються в смузі траси стародавнього
 шляху, відомого в середньовіччі як Муравський. The original appearance of the steppe surface of
 the southern part of the eastern European plane was
 transformed by the centuries of the anthropogenic impact.
 Along with feather grass the traces of the ancient
 roads have disappeared. However, the satellite images
 still detect the areas around some kurhans having
 kept the waggons traces. We can recognize them due
 to the different color of vegetation as well as by the
 coloration of the open soil. The antiquity of the roads
 near kurhans is witnessed by the cases of tracks, covered
 by the burial mounds, that were erected in the
 Bronze Age. An additional indicator of the ancient
 transport network on the maps of the 19th century are
 wells or groups of pits in the open steppe, the number
 of which should be associated with the need to water a
 large number of cattle. The latter occurred during the
 arrival of a trade caravan or a train of wagons. The
 kurhans themselves are an ancient form of mass cult
 buildings in the Eurasian steppe, which have attracted
 both large main and secondary roads. Powerful tradition
 of building kurhans, fading and restoring through
 times, existed from the Eneolithic to the late Middle
 Ages. The appearance of new mounds or the completion
 of existing ones periodically renewed the system of
 landmarks in the monotonous steppe.
 The paper provides an overview of previously unknown
 megastructures near the Scythian giant kurhans
 of Oguz and Chortomlyk, which in the form of
 light parallel stripes are recorded on satellite images.
 These stripes are probably traces of trenches or the
 foot of stone alleys, that were found to the east of the
 edge of the Oguz and outreached 800—850 m, and from
 Chortomlyk — 670 m. A search on various satellite images
 of the similar light stripes near other kurhans did
 not yield positive results. However, in the central part
 of the Dnieper-Molocha steppe region, satellite images
 luckily detected 19 nodes (intersections) of ancient
 ways connected to the kurhans’ mounds. Some of these
 nodes do yet not fit the complete road network of the
 region. But six of these nodes appear to be in the area
 of the route of the ancient path, known in the Middle
 Ages as Muravsky (Murava Route). It leaded from the
 Don basin, through the left (eastern) part of the basin
 of the Dnipro River to Crimea through the Isthmus of
 Perekop. Interestingly, this branch of the Muravsky
 Trail crosses the Sirogozy ravine between the kurhans
 of Kozel and Oguz. In previous reconstructions of the
 transport network, the option of passing this branch in
 the south of the Oguz, between the giant embankment
 and Diyiv kurhan, was preferred. The other three intersections
 lie in the lane of the old Chumaks’ Way or
 the Crimean Way, marking a forty-kilometer section
 between kurhans Kozel and Velyka Tsymbalka. From
 the center of the Tavria Steppe at least four directions
 of paths emerge towards the ancient Dnipro fordscrossings:
 Rogachytsia, Lepetych, Cair (Nosakiv) and
 Kіzikermen (Tavan).
